Custom woven labels are made by weaving colored threads on a loom so your logo or text becomes part of the fabric — not printed on top. The result is a premium, textured brand label that won’t fade, crack, or wash out over the life of the garment. They’re the go-to neck and brand label for clothing, accessories, and bags.
Woven label materials
We weave in three main qualities so you can match the texture to your product:
- Damask — a fine, dense weave with the highest detail and a soft, luxurious feel. Best for premium apparel.
- Satin — a smooth, lustrous polyester thread with a clean look at a moderate price.
- Taffeta — an economical, durable plain weave; best for outerwear, bags, and accessories.

Fold types & finishing
Woven labels can be finished with an end fold, center (loop) fold, mitre fold, or straight cut, depending on how they sew into the garment. Our woven label fold types guide explains each one and how it affects your design.
Colors & brand matching
Woven color comes from the thread shade, and we match to your Pantone (PMS) or thread numbers so every run is consistent. A few solid colors read cleanest. See thread colors & Pantone matching.
Woven vs. printed
Woven feels more premium and lasts longer; printed labels handle fine detail and unlimited colors for less. Many brands use a woven neck label plus a printed care label — compare in woven vs. printed labels.
Frequently asked questions
Do woven labels fade or wash out?
No — the design is woven from pre-dyed thread, so it stays sharp for the life of the garment.
How many colors can a woven label have?
Several, though a few solid colors reproduce best. For many colors or gradients, choose printed.
Can you match my exact brand color?
Yes — give us a Pantone code, hex, or sample and we’ll match the nearest thread, confirmed on a proof.
