How to Keep Shirt Displays Neat with the Right Size Stickers

To keep shirt displays neat and easy to shop, apply pre-printed clothing size labels directly to folded stacks or hangers. This helps customers find their size quickly and makes restocking faster for your team. 

Shirt size stickers like size strips or round dots keep inventory in order—especially during high-traffic sales or outdoor events like farmers markets. You can grab them in all standard sizes from our clothing size label collection.

Use Size Stickers to Keep Folds Clean and Consistent

When shirts are folded for display tables, size strips do two important things:

• Show the size clearly without unfolding the shirt
  
• Help staff fold and stack uniformly using the label as a visual anchor
  

Stick the size label on the front fold—ideally centered and a few inches below the collar or neckline. This keeps everything aligned and easy to scan at a glance. You’ll avoid the messy “dig and toss” that ruins a table in five minutes.

Choose the Right Type of Size Sticker for the Setup

Not all size stickers work the same. The best option depends on how you display your apparel.

For folded shirt tables:

• Use vertical size strips (like S–M–L–XL repeats)
  
• Stick centered on the front fold, readable from above
  

For hanging racks:

• Use smaller round size dots on hang tags or garment necklines
  
• Choose high-contrast designs for visibility from across the rack
  

For bins or clearance tables:

• Label the outside of the bag or protective wrap
  
• Or apply stickers to shelf edge tags for bulk sorting
  

Organize by Size and Style, Not Just Color

Even when shirts are arranged by color, shoppers care about one thing first: Does it come in my size?

By labeling the fold, you help them:

• Avoid pulling out every shirt just to check tags
  
• Compare sizes across styles without making a mess
  
• Feel more confident buying when they can easily browse
  

It also helps your team clean up faster when tables get hit hard during a weekend rush.

Use Clear Sizing for Special Events and Seasonal Setups

At farmers markets, pop-up booths, and sidewalk sales, space is limited—and messy piles lose you sales.

Here’s how to stay organized:

• Pre-label folded shirts with strips so sizes are visible on display
  
• Separate each size into its own section or bin
  
• Use color-coded size dots (e.g. red for S, blue for M, etc.) if space is tight
  
• Add labels to signs or price cards for quick reference
  

This keeps lines moving, prevents size confusion, and makes your booth look polished even during the rush.

Match Sticker Finish to the Shirt Material

Most size stickers are removable, but it still helps to match your label to your garment type:

• Paper size strips: Easy to remove, good for folded displays
  
• Clear plastic size strips: Sleeker look for high-end garments or clear bags
  
• Removable adhesive dots: Best for delicate materials and hangers
  
• Color-coded strips: Helpful when size and product type are mixed together
  

Test one before full application—especially for light or textured fabrics.

A Simple Fix That Speeds Up Shopping and Restocking

Shirt displays only stay tidy if sizes are easy to see. Pre-printed clothing size stickers take the guesswork out of folding, restocking, and customer browsing—whether you’re in a retail store or selling at a weekend event. 

Try size strips, round dots, or color-coded tags from our clothing size labels to keep your displays neat and shopper-friendly.

FAQs

Where should I place shirt size stickers on folded shirts?

Stick the size strip about 2–3 inches below the collar on the front fold. Keep it centered so the size is visible in a stack and aligns with the other shirts.

Do size labels leave residue on shirts?

Most pre-printed size labels are removable and designed for temporary use. For delicate fabrics, test first or use a label on the hang tag instead of directly on the shirt.

Can I use the same stickers for folded and hanging displays?

You can, but strips work best for folded shirts while round dots are more useful for hangers, tags, or shelf labels. Use what fits your setup.

How do I organize a clearance rack using size labels?

Use different sticker colors or shapes to separate sizes quickly. You can also tag the rack sections by size using larger signage with matching labels.

Are size stickers reusable?

No. These are single-use stickers meant for fast turnover and easy peel-off during restocking. They’re made to save time, not be permanent.
