Woven labels
For custom garment orders, woven labels can mark the neck, hem, or side seam. Send approved artwork, dimensions, colors, placement, and material direction to the manufacturer.
Branding choices
Match the brand detail to the garment
For a custom apparel order, match each option to the product, fabric surface, artwork complexity, quantity, wash expectations, and where customers should see the brand.
Production direction
Make branding decisions before the quote is locked
Labels and decoration affect setup, sampling, hand feel, packing, shipment weight, and sometimes garment construction. Confirm files and placement with the clothing manufacturer before the quote and sample are approved.

Buyer questions
Common branding questions before production
Established clothing brands should separate artwork, label information, decoration method, and packaging direction before reviewing a sample with the manufacturer.
Can a clothing manufacturer add custom labels to clothing?
Woven labels, printed size or care labels, neck prints, and hang tags can be included in a custom garment order. Share approved artwork and label text, dimensions, placement, quantity, and destination so the manufacturer can review the sample and production requirements.
Should I choose embroidery or print?
Choose around the garment, artwork, fabric surface, quantity, and intended finish. Embroidery can suit smaller textured marks, while print can work for larger graphics or color-heavy artwork. Review the method on the garment sample before bulk.
Can packaging be custom?
Packaging can include folding, individual bags, stickers, hang tags, inserts, barcode labels, carton counts, and other presentation details. Final options depend on the product, order quantity, materials, artwork, and shipment plan.
Who confirms care label and brand text?
The clothing brand provides or approves care, size, composition, and other destination-specific label information. The manufacturer can review label placement and production details using the approved content.
