Does anyone know a good way to remove the sewn-in tag from tee-shirts or
better still where I can buy them without tags?

Thanks in advance.

Many t-shirt manufacturers are now making tshirts without tags. Hanes
and Jockey are two that I know are making 'tagless' shirts. FoTL may
be as well.


The only way to remove them cleanly is to carefully rip out the
neckband stitching, remove the tags, and restitch the neckband.

G'day John

If you have a small pair of really sharp scissors it's quite easy to
roll back the edge of the neckband and cut the label off. Just take
tiny snips at one time and roll the Tshirt fabric over your finger to
keep it out of the way. This is what I always do if I buy something
ready made as I hate labels with a passion.

Hope this helps?

That's what I do when I have a shirt that has a label in it that is
very large or irritating.
