Are you ready to design your size labels or hang tags for clothing? They don't need to be complicated, especially if you choose to go with a premade option. Premade size labels come in multiple sizes (ironic, no?) to easily attach to your brand label or other primary garment label. If you want something with more detail, you can design customized size labels yourself, or opt to have sizes added to another label within your garment.
Separate size labels offer versatility and are the most affordable way to put sizing information onto a garment. Adding a size into another label design (for example – your brand label) means that you will only be able to use those labels on garments that match that size. Some designers like that because it means they have fewer labels within their garment.
But what is right for your needs? Here are some questions to ask yourself that will help you to decide which size labels you'll need to order:
What are your brand's sizing options?
Do you sell internationally? If so, will you include international sizes on the garment?
Where will the size labels be attached?
Do you want separate size labels to attach or sizing information included on another label?
Is cost an important factor?
What Goes on a Size Label?
Size labels are usually small and are often separate from your main brand and care & content labels. This gives you the most options because separate size labels are very easy to sew in and are very affordable. Basic size labels will have one size which you can match to your products, or if you need to convey more information, you can get custom size labels to include things like size conversions, “made in” info, or even your logo.
If you do plan to sell your products in more than one country, it is a good idea to include at least a few international size conversions on your label – for example EU 38 / UK 10 / US 4.
