What do I need to know when designing custom size labels?

Clockwise can remove the size tags of a garment and print custom single-color size labels on nearly any product you order. When designing your custom size label, some things you need to keep in mind are:

  • Size of Design - the largest we can print a size label is 3.5"W x 4.5"L, but most labels looks best around 2.5"W x 2.5"L.
  • Capability - Some garments are unable to be de-tagged and so we cannot print on them--this may apply to all or just some pieces of a garment style. 
  • Sizes of Garment - You may only be printing a sample in size medium, but you might as well prepare tag files for all the possible sizes!
  • Required information - All custom printed size tags are required to list the Country of Origin and Fabric Content, even if they will not be resold. Please see the Federal Wool & Trade Act for more information.
  • Number of Garment Colors and Styles - The fabric contents and Country of Origin varies across styles and even sometimes differs by color within a particular style.
