For footwear brands
Custom Shoe Tags
Footwear tags require durability. Our custom shoe tags are printed on heavy-duty stocks to withstand the rough environment of a retail shoe floor, without sacrificing premium brand aesthetics.
- In stock online. Swing tags are configured and ordered online from one tag; briefs for several designs or very large runs can also be quoted through the Custom Tag Builder.
- Free UK delivery. Standard online orders are delivered free to one UK address.
- Free reprint or refund if faulty. Report faulty, damaged or incorrect tags within 30 days of delivery and we reprint them or refund you in full, with free return postage if a return is needed. Because every order is printed to your specification, change-of-mind returns are not accepted. Your statutory rights are not affected.
- Online orders arrive 2–6 working days after artwork approval

Footwear branding
Tags built for the shoe rack
Shoe tags are handled constantly. Customers pick up the shoe, turn it over to check the sole, and push it back onto the shelf. A standard paper tag will quickly become bent, scuffed, and untidy.
Shoe tags are therefore specified on thick card, often laminated, so they still look tidy after a busy day of handling. A compact size and a reinforced hole matter more here than on almost any other tag.

Where shoe tags work
Shoe tag uses
Trainers & Sneakers
Tie branded tags through the top lace eyelet with lock string or elastic, and reinforce the tag hole with a metal eyelet.
Luxury Leather Shoes
Use a foil-stamped, heavy tag on a rope string for formal and leather footwear.
Size and style codes
Print the size, style number and barcode on the back so staff can match a shoe to its box.
Boots and outdoor footwear
Choose a laminated or synthetic tag where boots are displayed near entrances or outdoors.
Additional information
Shoe tag options
Shoe tag specifications
Configure the tag for durability.
- Size and shape
- Small, compact tags (e.g. 50x50mm squares) are less likely to get caught or bent when shoes are handled.
- Card and weight
- We strongly recommend 400gsm or heavier boards for footwear.
- Hole and attachment
- A metal eyelet stops the string tearing through when a shoe is picked up by its tag.
Card and finish
Finishing shoe tags
Protect the tag against wear and tear.
- Finishing: Matt or gloss lamination is highly recommended to protect the print from scuffs.
- Attachment: Elastic and lock string are listed in the Custom Tag Builder; describe a ball chain or other fixing in the notes if you need one.
Artwork and file guidance
Artwork preparation
Preparing artwork for shoe tags
If you are leaving space for retail staff to apply size or price stickers, ensure that specific area is left unlaminated, as stickers may peel off gloss finishes.
