Custom Retro Tags That Look Aged, Feel New

Custom retro tags with “Original”, “Limited”, and “Issue” on a retro shirt.

Designed to Feel Vintage — But Printed Fresh

Custom retro tags are made for brands that want old-world charm with new-age quality. Think distressed textures, kraft tones, aged prints — paired with exact cuts and sharp finishes.

These tags sit perfectly on handmade goods, furniture pieces, or curated retail sets. Every order is designed around your artwork, message, and tone.

Need something mini? Pair your retro design with our mini tag styles for candles, soaps, or jewellery pouches.

Retro isn’t just a style — it’s a signal. It says your product has depth. It says “crafted,” not “mass produced.”

Finish Options, Materials & Tag Sizes

Most custom retro tags are printed on kraft, recycled, or off-white textured boards. Add a foil layer for contrast, or go uncoated for a raw feel.
Popular shapes include 70x35mm rectangles, 50mm rounds, or square cuts. Want something unique? Choose a die cut style or submit your own outline.
Some customers pair retro tags with folded swing tag layouts, using the front for artwork and the inside for care instructions or QR codes.

Use Cases & Brand Types That Choose Retro

These tags are chosen by vintage-style boutiques, candle makers, woodworkers, vinyl sellers, and gift set curators. They show up in clothing launches, jewellery boxes, and even event kits.

If your branding leans into nostalgia, texture, or slow craft — retro tags help set the tone. They’re especially popular with earthy colour palettes, slab fonts, and analogue-inspired logos.

Many UK sellers pair custom retro tags with eco finishes to send the message: “We care how this was made — and how it’s received.”
