Default I need blanks with no tags in them

Here is my dilemma and I know there is probably an answer somewhere here but right now(8am) I am just too lazy to find it.

Anyway I am currently just cutting tags out of blanks and then pressing my own "tagless" label in. My problem is that if I want to go into a big retail store this practice is substandard and they will laugh me out of the store.

Where can I find 100% ring spun cotton t-shirts with no tags in them? Or even better with my tag already in it. I also would like to find hoodys with no tags.

I looked into ordering from china but most of the prices I got were crazy! I'm also not to keen on ordering from the states either just due to sheer cost for me, but if it boils down to that I will.

I am interested in any answers to this also. I've searched the forums for tagless shirts, but am not really finding the information. I see a lot of how to put a logo over a tag, but I'm interested in a straight logo to shirt option and still have a high quality shirt. Any info would be very helpful!

You aren't going to find shirts without tags in them. They do make ringspun T's with tear away tags though, which makes it easy and convenient. Just off the top of my head, Article 1 has tear away tags in all of their shirts and AAA has tear away tags in some shirts. Econsious also has tear away tags in their shirts. If you look at your competitors, Element, Hurley, Tum-Yeto, Sector 9 and countless others all have organic lines so ECOnscious may be another option for you. I am a skater myself and I love my ECOnscious shirts. Just another option.

See what happens when you're lazy, you miss the relabeling forum FAQ: Frequently Asked Questions in the Relabeling and Finishing Forum: New here? Read Me

dfalk is right, they don't make them. Since shirts need to have labels on them when they get to the end customers (legally), wholesalers generally don't sell them without tags.

Like dfalk said, some brands have labels that are easy to tear away and don't leave any residue behind like Article1, Alstyle 1701, Pacific Sports, etc.

You can see the Alstyle 1701 in action here as a video: AAA - Alstyle 1701 w/tear away tags??

What would be wrong with leaving the "hanes" or what ever brand name in the shirt and adding your logo to the tail or the sleeve? I have seen lots of companies do this. Just a thought!

For some clothing companies, that's perfectly fine. I sold t-shirts online for years and never relabeled them. I had many repeat customers through other branding means.

However for others who are in a retail environment (like in a boutique or brick and mortar store), having your own brand's label in the neckline is a bit more important.

Relabeling depends on the market/customers you are targeting. Try to check with your prospects what they would expect from your product.

try Continental Clothing - they do exactly what you need. A little pricey but it's well worth the cost. Fantastic quality.
