Clothing Labels

Clothing labels are something few people give any thought to. However, if you have kids you do have to pay attention to them at least once a year. In the UK, and across much of Europe, schools ask parents to label up their children’s belongings. It helps to settle disputes over who items belong to and to ensure children do not take other children’s coats etc home by mistake. A big problem with school uniforms is that they all look more or less the same.

Not all schools ask their parents to do this, but many parents still do so to try to stop their children losing items at school. This means that at the end of the summer holiday even modern parents are kept busy labelling up their children’s clothes and other items.

Old Fashioned vs. Modern Clothing Labels

Old style clothing labels were not easy to use. They needed to be sewn into each item of clothing, which took time and by midterm they were often missing or clogging up the washing machine. Because labels have to bear the full name of each child, they had to be custom made. This made them an expensive item. In addition, you had to remember to order them several weeks in advance.

Fortunately, modern clothing labels are nothing like the old ones. They still have to be ordered in advance, but a week is enough. Modern production techniques and materials mean that the price of these labels has dropped significantly. They are also much easier to use than the old-fashioned kind. Most are designed to be ironed in and they stay in place for much longer.
