Never Lose a Jacket Again — Original Peel ’n Stix® & Iron-On Clothing Labels for Kids
Tired of clothing getting mixed up at school, daycare, or camp? Our clothing labels for kids are the original solution — the ones that started it all. Sticky Monkey Labels is the home of the original Peel ’n Stix® peel and stick clothing labels, created by a mom in Little Rock in 2011 long before everyone else started calling theirs the same thing. Our stick-on clothing labels apply directly to the care tag or tagless imprint in seconds — no heat, no ironing, no fuss.
Our iron-on clothing labels bond permanently into the fabric with a household iron, creating a soft, seamless finish that survives every machine wash and tumble dry without peeling or fading. These machine washable labels are gentle on sensitive skin and ideal for socks, underwear, school uniforms, and anything tagless. Together our stick-on and iron-on options give you the right clothing label for every garment in your child’s wardrobe.
Whether you need clothing stickers for daycare drop-off, stick on laundry labels for the school year, or iron-on nametags for summer camp, we make every label by hand and ship in 1–2 days. Custom name, fun design, and the exact right size — because no two garments are the same and neither are two kids.
Clothing Labels for Kids: Common Questions
What are Peel ’n Stix® clothing labels?
Peel ’n Stix® is our original name for the peel and stick clothing labels Sticky Monkey Labels has been making since 2011. You peel the label from the sheet and press it directly onto your garment’s care tag or the largest part of the tagless imprint inside — no heat or ironing required. They adhere in seconds, stay firmly in place through repeated machine washing, and are removable when needed for hand-me-downs or borrowed gear. We coined the name; others have copied it, but ours are the originals.
What are clothing labels used for?
Clothing labels are used to identify jackets, uniforms, and coats to prevent them from ending up in the lost and found. They provide a reliable way to keep kids’ gear organized for school, daycare, and camp by ensuring every garment is clearly marked and ready to return home. Clear labeling also helps teachers and caregivers identify clothing quickly in shared cubby spaces and locker rooms.
Do you offer stick-on and iron-on clothing labels?
Yes — we offer both. Our original Peel ’n Stix® stick-on clothing labels are clothing stickers that press onto care tags or tagless imprints with no heat. Our iron-on clothing labels use a household iron to bond permanently into the fabric fibers. Both are machine washable and laundry safe — pick the one that fits your fabric, your routine, and how permanent you need the label to be.
What is the difference between stick-on and iron-on clothing labels?
Stick-on labels (our original Peel ’n Stix®) apply in seconds to a care tag or tagless imprint and are removable — ideal for uniforms, hand-me-downs, and borrowed gear. Iron-on clothing labels bond permanently into the fabric and are the better choice for socks, underwear, and anything you never want the label to come off. Both are machine washable labels designed to stay legible through hundreds of laundry cycles.
How do I label tagless baby clothes or uniforms?
For tagless items, iron-on labels are the most permanent solution — they bond directly into the fabric and won’t be affected by the absence of a tag. If you prefer stick-ons, apply the Peel ’n Stix® label to the largest part of the tagless imprint inside the garment for the most secure hold. Iron-on is the recommended choice for tagless baby clothing, school uniforms, and sports gear where you want a truly permanent result.
Are your clothing labels machine washable?
Yes — both our stick-on and iron-on clothing labels are fully machine washable and tumble dryer safe. Our iron-on labels are specifically designed to bond into the fabric and survive repeated high-heat drying without peeling, fading, or cracking. Our Peel ’n Stix® stick-on laundry labels hold firmly through wash after wash and only come off with intentional effort. These are not craft store labels — they are made for kids who actually wear their clothes.
How do I choose the best clothing labels for my child?
Choose Peel ’n Stix® stick-on labels for a quick, no-iron option on care tags or tagless imprints — great for anything you might pass along later. Choose iron-on nametags for a permanent bond on any iron-safe fabric — best for socks, underwear, and uniforms. Many parents keep both types on hand: Peel ’n Stix® for the wardrobe and iron-on for the things that really need to stay labeled forever. Our Design Duo packs give you both in one coordinating set.
