These handmade luggage tags are a practical accessory for identifying bags during travel or at school. Constructed from high-quality polyurethane (PU) with a microfiber backing, the material is between 1.8mm and 2.2mm thick. This synthetic blend is designed to stay flexible in cold temperatures, which helps prevent the cracking that can occur with cheaper plastic tags. The laser engraving process etches the name 0.3mm deep into the surface, ensuring the text remains visible even after heavy use.
Specifications indicate that the PU material is naturally hydrophobic, meaning it won't absorb water or rot if the bag is left in a damp environment. The attachment uses a standard steel buckle that is rated for a pull-strength of up to 20 lbs. For checked luggage that may face high-torque handling, threading the tag through its own strap (a reverse-loop install) can provide an extra layer of security. The high-contrast engraving allows the name to be read from several feet away, assisting with quick bag recovery.
While the material is durable, the edges are non-stitched; over long periods of heavy friction, you may see some minor delamination. The tag adds negligible weight to your bag, making it a simple but effective organizational tool.
If you are looking for a backpack to pair this tag with, the Gelledi corduroy daypack offers a soft-shell option for students and travelers.
