Why do clothes have such scratchy, uncomfortable labels? I like to cut them out, but usually forget when I get a new item of clothing and walk around all day with an itchy, scratching feeling on the top of my back or the top of my bum (if it is trousers). I would have thought clothes manufacturers could find a softer material for labels. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Yes, without the label it could be hard to tell.

I've got a vintage Fred Perry polo shirt with a polyester label that some of the stitching has come adrift on, and does that dig into the back of my neck when I'm wearing it. I'll have to get the needle and thread out

Me too. Especially baby's clothes. the instruction labels are SSSOOOO big!!
Mind you - I even cut brand labels of the front of mine.

They should pay ME to advertise on...-

Well I haven't heard of anyone cutting brand labels off!! But i can understand why you don't want to give then free advertising, or in fact pay to advertise!!

I was out one day in the Peak District in my South African rugby shirt and the Cotton Traders label was really peeing me off, scratching like hell. So I tore it out. When I took the shirt off I had a major (for me) sewing job to repair the hole. But it didn't itch anymore.

I know the lables itch and are very uncomfortable.. If i remove em from my bra i forget the style and so i have to search for it next time
loads of confusions becoz each brand has a different code and size depending from region to region 
Munzly
I always do the same thing, but then find I've got stuff on back to front
