Custom Hem Tags for T-Shirts & Streetwear

Hem tags are the small folded labels sewn into the sleeve or bottom hem of a t-shirt or hoodie. They’re a simple way to put your logo on the outside of the garment without overpowering the design.

We make woven, satin, and cotton hem tags sized and folded to fit your exact garment. Send your logo and we’ll turn it into a clean, professional hem tag that stands out.

What Hem Tags Are Used For

Hem tags are perfect when you want your logo visible from the outside. They add a subtle branded touch to:

  • Streetwear
  • Merch drops
  • Limited-edition tees
  • Hoodies and sweatshirts
  • Premium basics

They work especially well when you want branding that stands out without covering the shirt’s main artwork.

Printed Hem Tags

Printed hem tags use ink on satin or cotton. They feel soft, show small details clearly, and lay nicely on the fabric.

Best for: fine lines, detailed designs, softer look

You can order hem tags alone, or pair them with matching neck labels to keep your branding consistent inside and out.

Hem Tag Placement Ideas

Hem tags are usually sewn:

custom t shirt labels placement:
Neck.
Bottom Hem of the t-Shirt
Sleeve
Pocket
On the outer side seam of the shirt  (also called flag labels)
On the inner side seam of the shirt  (also called flag labels)
  • Into the bottom hem on the left side
  • Into the sleeve hem (great for long sleeves and hoodies)
  • Into the side seam for a clean “flag” look

Most factories can attach hem tags during production without needing to change their setup.

Design Tips for Hem Tags

  • Keep the artwork simple — these labels are small.
  • Choose high-contrast colors so the logo stays readable.
  • Use both sides of the fold if you want extra creativity.
  • Match the colors and style of your neck labels and hang tags.

If you want to see how your design will look at actual size, we’ll include that in your free digital proof.
