Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between woven and printed labels?
Woven labels are produced with thin threads interlaced or woven together. In contrast, printed labels are produced by using our sublimated printing technology to print your design directly onto the blank labels. Sublimated label printing is perfect for designs with lots of detail. Even QR codes and barcode labels can be printed using our sublimation technology. On the other hand, woven printing works best for simpler designs with solid colors. Explore the different types of woven labels in this article explaining the Types of Woven Labels.
Can you iron on labels to apparel?
Yes, as long as your labels include iron on backing.
What label shapes are offered with custom labels?
Custom Labels can be produced in various shapes. Our most common is a rectangle shape, but we also produce round labels and cut-to-size labels. If you can dream it, we can most likely produce it.
What types of folds are available for custom labels?
We offer four different label fold options: center fold, straight cut, end fold, and manhattan folds. Contact our custom support team to understand the fold best for your project.
What is the best fabric for clothing labels?
We suggest using polyester, which is highly durable and less likely to react to skin contact. To dig deeper on Polyester Vs Knit Fabrics, check-out this article. However, leather is another excellent choice for logo labels. Our genuine leather is durable and offers a wonderful personal touch.
How do you attach labels to clothing?
There are two options for attaching labels or tags to clothing. The most popular option is sewing them directly onto the item. This can require a skilled seamstress. Heat-applying the labels is also offered as a fast and easy application method.
What backing options are available for labels?
We offer three different backing options for labels: adhesive (sticker labels), iron-on (thermal transfer labels), and no backing. Ask our customer service team for free samples of each backing type.
What is the production time for custom labels?
The standard production time is 8 to 15 business days. We do have rush options for fast delivery to meet your special event. Add your email address to our newsletter at the bottom of this page for great promos! Including free shipping promos, special offers, and other marketing material.
What is the minimum amount of labels I need to order?

Reviews
Consistent quality custom production of our unique logo, hoop/loop patches which merited repeat larger orders for our Vets To Drones organization. The Staffs professionalism simplified ordering and the prompt turn around was greatly appreciated!
Everything about our T-shirt order from the Monterey Company was OUTSTANDING. If your order happens to be small (as ours was), don't worry; they will treat you like you're one of their top customers. The order process was smooth and user-friendly from beginning to end; the communication was frequent and clear; and the quality of the final product was excellent (and captured more detail than we had imagined). Additionally, the T-shirt material was soft and durable - very top notch! And most of all, their suggestions for improving on our original artwork were perfect and added nice touches to our original ideas. Not to mention their pricing options - VERY reasonable! James and the rest of the team were a pleasure to work with. We will gladly use them again in the future!
I was a bit skeptical at first when I saw their ad. But boy did they deliver. The product looks great definitely will be ordering more!
We had what is probably considered a smaller order since we are not a company, but we had t-shirts made for an event. The entire process from beginning to end was thorough, professional, and there was great attention to detail so we would get EXACTLY what we wanted at a really excellent price. The quality of the tshirts was excellent. I would not hesitate to use Monterey Company again. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful. Thank you!
I just wanted to take a moment to share a few things about a company that I have been working with for roughly 6 years. My main contact is Josh Knowles and he is AMAZING. Monterey is professional, has quality products and is very easy to work with. Their customer service is 2nd to none and I am sure we will continue to have them produce our patches for many years to come!
Monterey Company created custom key chains that we can give to our clients with closings. They are great quality and we are very happy.
Excellent customer service from start to finish! Very smooth process, understood exactly what I needed, and the final product was perfect! Definitely using them moving forward.
