What is the difference between clothing labels and stamps?

We've got a variety of different options for labeling clothing, and all are incredibly durable! The main difference is how they are applied to clothing. 

Our Tag Mates are small labels that stick right to the care tag inside your clothing, where the size, brand and washing instructions are found. We do not recommend using them directly on the fabric, and find that most 'tagless' shirts have a care tag hiding in the side seam near the bottom of the shirt that you could apply a Tag Mate to. The ease of application makes these our most popular choice of clothing labels, and once stuck, they're guaranteed to stay on through the washer and dryer!

Our Iron-On Clothing Labels are the tried-and-true traditional way of labeling your clothing, and our best option for clothing without a care tag. They fuse right to iron-safe fabric using your regular household iron on medium-high heat. They're a great solution for tagless clothing, towels, sheets, socks and underwear.

Lastly, our Custom Clothing Stamp is a fast, easy and clean way to mark clothing, and is good for approximately 500 applications! It's a great lablling solution for light-coloured fabrics: you simply stamp the name onto your clothing items to label them for 40+ washes! For dark clothing, be sure to check out our Blank White Iron-On Tape! Watch our video all about our Clothing Stamp here:

Looking for Peel & Stick Name Labels for Clothing? These are currently discontinued while we work on improving them, so they can't be ordered right now. Please check back in 2027! In the meantime, Iron-On Clothing Labels or the Custom Clothing Stamp are the best options for tagless clothing.
