Why Size Labels Matter More Than You Think
Size labels are among the smallest components of a garment — yet they carry outsized importance. A missing, unclear, or incorrect size label can result in customer returns, export rejection, and poor brand experience.
SR Labels, Kanchipuram manufactures custom size labels in woven, satin, and taffeta for garment manufacturers, exporters, boutiques, and uniform suppliers across India.

Size Label Materials: Which to Choose?
Woven Size Labels
Design woven directly into the fabric — permanent and never fades. Ideal for high-end, luxury, and premium garments, outerwear, and denim. Rich textured appearance adds to the premium brand feel.
Satin Printed Size Labels
Smooth, silky, very soft against skin — excellent for innerwear and children's clothing. Full-color capability allows brand colors and logo alongside the size. More economical than woven for large volume orders.
Taffeta Size Labels
Most economical option — preferred for bulk garment manufacturing. Durable and wash-resistant with crisp, legible size text even at very small sizes. Standard choice for garment exporters and mass-market manufacturers.
Where to Place Size Labels on Garments
| Garment Type | Size Label Placement |
|---|---|
| T-shirts & Tops | Inside back neck / collar |
| Formal Shirts | Inside back collar, centre |
| Trousers & Jeans | Inside waistband, centre back |
| Skirts & Shorts | Inside left side seam, waist height |
| Dresses | Inside back neckline or left side seam |
| Children's Wear | Back neck — kept small and soft |
| Jackets & Outerwear | Inside back collar or left chest lining |
| School Uniforms | Back collar for shirts, waistband for trousers |
Pro Tips for Ordering Size Labels
Always order your complete size run (XS through XXL) in a single batch — this ensures perfect consistency in color, material, and print quality across your entire range.
- Order as a complete set: All sizes simultaneously for consistent material, color, and print quality
- Consider combo labels: Combining size with wash care information saves cost and stitching time
- Match your brand identity: Use brand colors and fonts for a cohesive professional look
- Choose the right fold: End fold and centre fold labels are most practical for high-speed stitching
