    I applaud every garment manufacturer that sews a tiny same-colored loop near the neck of a shirt or near the waist of pants where the tag can be led through it with a piece of string that doesn’t pierce the fabric and can be effortlessly cut off.

    Bonus points if it’s just a cotton thread holding a piece of cheap cardboard and no plastic is involved.

      Even better, loop the tag string through the back-of-neck label, itself preferably barely basted on.

      Gives that damn thing a reason to exist and reminds you to get it off immediately. Instead of finding yourself desperately stripping in the bathroom and hacking it off with nail scissors when the itching drives you crazy.

      Seriously! When clothes have been on the rack for a while getting yanked around by their tags sometimes there’s pretty significant damage, especially visible on some types of textile.

      Just stop it.

        Even worse, when the fat end of that thing is sewn in and can’t be removed!

        I double check for that now.

    I also hate any baby clothes that use proper buttons instead of poppers. Such a pain in the arse trying to do them up when the kid is all over the place! Even better if the poppers have some kind of colour code so you know which goes where, some baby grows were a nightmare for this as they folded in a weird way.

      In the US we call those snaps. Both onomatopoeic! And yes they’re the best for wiggly babies. Plus very satisfying to RIP the whole front open when you have to do a fast diaper change.

      Snaps are ok, but zippers are my personal preference. Bonus points if I can unzip the entire outfit when it inevitably gets soiled with some bodily fluid or solid.

    The needle tool for applying these to garments is the most casual injury prone tool I’ve ever used for work.

        Is that a tag puncher in your pocket, or are you just in a whole lot of pain?

    Could probably get them banned on baby clothes as a hazard.

    Cutting these off of dog toys is the worst. I’m always worried I’m going to miss one and hurt my dog.

    The thumbnail made them look like little fungi, and the title still worked.

    Those tags are annoying, but they are also very satisfying to bite through…
