Image: Two images almost identical to each other stacked vertically. The top one is the back of a neck of a person wearing a sweater with the tag sticking out. It is captioned “What it looks like”. The bottom image is the exact same image but the sweater’s tag has been replaced with a cactus. It is captioned “What it feels like”.
I hate it when I cut the tag out but there’s still tag material caught in the seam that I can’t remove without undoing the seam. Arrggghh!
I cut it super close with a scalpel blade. So close in fact, that it might tear the seam. It’s exhilarating, which is how I know I’ve grown old.
I seriously wont buy a shirt if I can’t rip the tag out so that there is nothing of it left while not damaging the shirt. I really wont.
Depends on the wool
Everyone should follow what Decathlon does, ie stitch the tag to a small piece of fabric, and then stitch the fabric to the garment. This way you can cut the tag away with a bit of fabric and the remaining fabric won’t bother you.
I get in there with tweezers
Thats why tag less is so popular. Thankfully tags nowadays are nowhere as bad as it used. it was horrible. I felt like cutting the tag back then only made it worse. Just a sharp jagged spike on my neck all day.
