When it comes to labels there are plenty of quality and looks to choose from it all depends on what your looking for.

Damask clothing labels being one of the better quality and probably the more expensive one. It is a high definition weave processed using at least two threads mostly on a high-speed loom. The detail and crispness of your logo or whatever graphic you choose is best conceived on a woven damask quality label. (Actually the type I used with t-shirts I produced earlier in starting a clothing line good stuff :))

Satin labels are produced on single needles also probably somewhere below damask in quality, but also have a different feel and quality is still good. Satin labels are probably not the best for a very defined graphic. They are more comfortable and have a softer hand. Satin labels are more shiny and used in more fancy fashionable labels.

Taffeta Labels are the lowest quality and has a lower thread count. It comes in different weaves and flexible as far as prices and quantities.

Choosing labels really is all up to the designer and the type of brand you are producing. Some may go with taffeta while a better quality brand will go with damask.

    How a label is finished and made ready for production is important.

    While damask is generally the highest level of material available. ask your label guy if they can” double shuttle” weave for precise exact logo replication.

    Any of these Google Ad label guys know about this technique ?
