Types of Folds
One of the important factors to decide when creating your custom clothing labels is the fold, some of them are available to certain styles.
Straight Cut / No Fold Labels
These labels are not folded and can be sewn from anywhere. Most edges will not fray, as they will be heat-cut.

Centerfold Labels
Center-fold labels are labels that are folded in the middle of the label. They are also called loop or mid-fold labels.
Available for both woven and printed labels.
Ends-Fold Labels
Ends-Fold Labels are labels whose ends are folded (usually a 1/4″ fold) so the ends look smooth finished. They are very commonly used in printed labels of natural materials, to protect the fragile edges from fraying.
Available for both woven labels.
Mitre-Fold Labels
Mitre-Fold is a ends-fold fold done at 45 degrees, creating two tabs from where the label will be attached to the garment.

Manhattan Fold Labels
