Clothes labels, tags, hanging loops etc.
« on: January 28, 2013, 09:46:15 AM »
Whenever you buy new clothes these days you spend forever having to now cut off the annoying tags. In fact most of them are designed to be cut off now.

Why ?  cussing:

Just have a small little label with whatever washing instructions - this doesn't need to be something that has to be akin to a scroll !!!!

As for the loops ....they often hang down further than the garment. End up getting caught up in a complete mess when trying to put the garment on or pose a real risk of strangulation.

Why also if you buy a thin black shirt for example it has a huge white tag inside it ?  Banghead

It's because most clothing is made by the bloody Kong-Wongs (as my late FiL used to call them).

For the same reason the arms are usually too damned short...... Which might suit apc but displeases me and Woodstock.

That is a tad too much information for me. The mental image sent me screaming from the room.

For the same reason the arms are usually too damned short...... Which might suit apc but displeases me and Woodstock.
