Hello, last year I sewed on individual name labels onto everything but this year I have 2 children's uniforms needing them done, and feel no motivation to do it again.

Does anyone have recommendations for a brand or type that they have found good that doesn't come off in the wash please?
So many to choose from when I search. Thank you in advance 🙂

I used Funky Lables last year, they do sew on & stick on, we had the stick on ones, they never moved an inch, just ordered more for this year.

I used a Pilot Laundry Tec Pen. Some of our school uniform has been used for 2 years and will be heading into its 3rd year and still perfectly readable, and we’ve never had a lost item that didn’t come back to us.

I've used NameTags4U for years. I get a combo of stickers (for bottles & shoes) and stamp (for clothing labels).

The stickers survive the dishwasher well. The stamp survives on labels for a good couple of years, and is usually fairly dispersed by the time you want to pass the clothing on.

Stitkins for me, have used them for the last 7 years or so. They’re literally stickers that go onto the wash label. Their turnaround is good too, usually dispatched next working day.

Second Petit-Fernand. They’re easy, fun and virtually indestructible. DS’s are still going after 2 years.

stikins for me too.

I did stamptastic after looking at a thread on here.... the stamp pad dried up quickly despite storing it as per instructions. I was very careful about this ensuring the sealed bag was sealed. Pad should last 2 years but was done by 18 months.

The stamps do fade in the wash especially towards the end of the stamp pads life.

Love the stickers - haven't budged! Can be used on clothes, bags, shoes, water bottles, lunch boxes. Handy as well for non uniform days to stick on a jumper before school you know will be taken off before the end of the day
