Hello,

winter is coming and I bought two scarfs. Today I wore one over the jacket. Finally at home I looked in the mirrow and saw the (well sewn) label. So here is my question:

Do you remove labels from scarfs?

Any advice appreciated!

Yours
GN

Yes. Always. They may be scratchy, and why do I need to remember the brand or content of my scarf?

You look like a poser with the label left on.

I bought one last year from Benetton with my top coat and the girl cut the tag off for me!

I only keep it if it matches the label on my jacket sleeve.

I remove them if they're big and nuisance-y. I have scarves from Zara, APC and I think Gap where I had to cut off the label because of this. But if they're small and don't rub against me when I loop the scarf around my neck, I don't bother to remove the label. I think I'm just lazy.

I keep mine on just because I never knew it was a "thing" to remove them.
