I wonder what impact those plastic bits used to attach tags to clothing have on durability. Woven/knit products kind of have a countdown that starts when threads break, and those tags tend to mean your clothing already has broken threads right from the store.

Most tshirts I've seen have a tiny fabric loop on the collar where the tag can be attached without puncturing the fabric.
