I was watching this video that I got from a silk screening company about creating distressed retro looking graphics, wrap around graphics and tags. In the section about making the tags, the screener takes the tee, grabs the tag and easily rips it off the shirt. For whatever reason, I was thinking the tees were Beefy Tees but I'm not sure. Anyway, I tried doing exactly what he did and tore a whole in the collar of the tee! lol Clearly, that's not the way to go. So does anyone have a method for removing the tags from the collars of the tees without leaving an edge from the tag or a hole?

I buy tees from Anvil...they have tear away tags so you just pull on the tag and it comes right off. I've seen other posts about using a seam ripper, but I haven't tried that.

there are 4 or 5 brands and/or tee styles avaiable that have tear away tags, do a search for it on the forums - they are all listed.

If you get a shirt with tear away tags, it's pretty straight forward, but otherwise you would definitely need a seem ripper and then you just sew the new one where the old one was or stitch back over the torn stictches if you're screen printing your labels.
