Luggage Tags Business Card Holder TUFFTAAG Travel ID Bag Tag in Many Color Options

Nice and solid but light as well, cable is secure. Company emailed me templates to print label inserts.One note: If you are printing labels on an inkjet, be aware that inkjet ink is not water-proof and neither is this holder. If you luggage were to sit in the rain (say on the aircraft ramp while being loaded) for a few minutes, the rain would be sucked into the label and the ink would likely smear to being unreadable. Covering the label with clear tape after printing and before putting it into the holder will largely prevent this.

I’ve got a ton of these for all of the various suitcases we have. I’ve used lots of the leather and vinyl ones over the years and they all fall apart super quick if you travel much. I had silicone tags that came with some of my adventure luggage. They’re durable but get opaque pretty fast and can get ripped off by the luggage handling machines.These tags are indestructible. The metal is heavy enough to resist bending, the wire locks to attach them are thick and sturdy, and the plastic windows are nice and thick.They hold a business card well. I have to adjust it as I put one in to make sure the information shows. If you put a hand written card in there it’ll work without any trouble.I highly recommend these. The color varieties are also really helpful for making your bag a little easier to spot in the baggage carousel.

This really IS a totally functional item ...a last minute purchase for an international flight (replacing a plastic tag that was shredded on a previous trip). It made my bag so much easier to locate both in the overhead & on the ground when I had to gate check my bag.As others have mentioned, it's simple to make this tag really stand out. I "personalized" the tag by simply inserting a room key card from a favorite hotel into the front "window" (to cover my personal info)...simple & fun!

Not bad. It’s made of metal. The method used to store the printed tag in the metal enclosure is a bit finicky. There are three pieces. Metal backing, the tag which you write your name an address, a plastic protector. They have to be aligned just right for the metal loop to fit through the hole. The metal loop it self a bit finicky as well. It needs to be screwed in so taking it on and of is a bit of a chore. The loop is also required to keep the enclosure and the three pieces I mentioned earlier in place. Its a very nice looking tag made out of metal with just a few minor design flaws. The company that makes the tab will send you an email to access a PDF file with custom tags to use. However, they must be printed out and cut out and hole punched. Remember how the pieces had to line up? I think is just easier to write on the one provided with the tag.

Email I sent to them about 3 weeks ago with no response: Hey guys - actually very happy with the tags in general - received them around 3 weeks ago and they've already been on a flights each week and done well. My concern is the plastic sheet that covers the card - the rest of this tag is bulletproof, but the slightest agitation of the plastic cover causes it to scratch up and peel. For a weekly flyer, these things will be tossed in the bins, under the seats, up and down a thousand times and will inevitably come in contact with lots of stuff. For the TUFFTAAG name, I would have expected a much more durable plastic covering that isn't so easily damaged - bummer to have a great tag, but an already tore up plastic cover - makes business card harder to read. Anyways - generally happy. Just feedback before posting a public review. Thanks!

We got these in blue and orange to help identify checked luggage on a long, international trip. While the colors are vibrant and definitely help the luggage stand out as they are on the conveyor belt, the quality is not what I would expect for the price. The area you slide the name card into is quite loose and it slides a good bit in there. Perhaps a couple pieces of card stock behind there would help, but it seems like it’s going to pull in rain and sand and everything else. For the price, I expected them to but a bit more solid, but they are brightly colored and easily identified.

It's ok but for me they became damaged when baggage handlers stack the luggage into the plane. I think a flexible material would weather better. But great look and very nice quality. It is just that those baggage handlers really treat the bags poorly and for me this caused damage to my tag. Nothing bad against the tag, it's more the way the bags were treated. It you are using for a carryon then by all means buy these with confidence. Looks great and adds some class and customization to your bag.

It looks awesome, but it has sharp edges and the holder loop is really big, round and rough and seems like it's always at risk of getting hooked somewhere, so I feel uneasy to have it on my luggage since I know it will be on several conveyor belts. I feel that if it does get hooked somewhere, it will just rip my luggage. Also, the plastic cover for the data scratched really easy, right from day one.For what it's worth, mine got lost at the second flight where I used it on my documented baggage. Nothing ripped, seems like it caught someone's attention and simply got stolen. Back to the old plastic tag that has been there for so many flights.

I loved the idea of these tags, but unfortunately it's a flawed concept. To explain, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the construction of the tag. It is indeed tough, and comes with a stainless steel loop for attaching it. However the problem is that because the tag is so tough and rigid, it does not give or flex in any way. I believe this is why mine became detached from my suitcase on my return journey. It's also quite large, and again I think this contributed to the loss of the tag. So right now, my personal details are floating around the bottom of an aircraft checked baggage bin, or an airport somewhere. Not ideal! :(It would probably be OK for carry on luggage but I would not recommend buying one for checked baggage!EDIT: I'd just like to say a massive thanks to ProudGuy UK for responding to this review, and issuing me a refund. So whilst the product did let me down, the seller was nothing short of excellent, and went well beyond my expectations to remedy this!

Well it seemed like a good idea to get four of these for a month long holiday to New Zealand with stopovers in Sydney on the way and Bangkok on the way back. They looked great, very shiny, colourful, and distinctive - very easy to spot our black cases with one of these on. But on some circumstances they WILL inevitably be damaged or ripped from the case they are attached to. Here's what happened:We tagged two daysacks for cabin baggage and two identical large hardshell Samsonite cases with pink and red TUFFTAAGs to denote which of the two of us owned which case. The two tags attached to the soft daysacks used as cabin baggage are entirely unscathed - they look as good as new after 7 flights. But the two tags on the Samsonite checked hardshells did not fare so well. After the first flight one TUFFTAAG had its end 2cm bent at a 90 degree angle from the rest of the tag. It was still doing its job, but after straightening the tag (by treading on it!) it was looking very secondhand I I could see that replacing my label card inside the tag would be almost impossible. The other tag was still fine. I changed the tagging point on both suitcases for a place I thought might expose them to less damage.After flight number 2, one of the tags had been lost completely, ripped off somewhere in baggage handling (this is why I only buy hardshell cases.) The other tag, the already bent and straightened one, was still in place, but only because the tag's wire had become wedged between the case handle and the housing on the case that the handle folds away into. The smaller of the screw ends of the wire tag had been ripped off the end of the wire. I presume that there's a soldered blob on the end of the wire that holds the screwed terminal in place, and the wire end shows a clean edge - it seems as if the solder blob has been torn off by leverage applied by the tag itself.The TUFFTAAGs are tough in that they are difficult to destroy (there's one bearing my name and address that is probably still in great condition somewhere between London and Sydney, but it isn't attached to my case) but easy to damage if attached to checked-in baggage, especially to a hard case where the stiffness of the large metal tag is in fact the thing that kills it. Get one end of the tag caught between two hard cases, or trapped under the case it's attached to, and there's a very high chance (50:50 chance per flight!!!) that it will be severely bent or lever itself free by breaking the detent holding the screw end on the wire. The tag I still have that was attached to a hard case shows considerable additional damage where the gnurled screw fixing on the wire has rolled against the tag's under-surface in a circle around the wire hole in the tag, marking it deeply and showing the tag was subjected to considerable force and leverage against mine or another hard case.Verdict: fine on cabin bags or general travel, but on hard cases in checked bags they will quickly be damaged or lost, in our case after two flights on a 7 flight trip. They MAY be okay on soft bags checked as hold baggage, but if the tag is tougher than your soft bag it might be your bag that gets damaged, not the tag.

Excellent quality. Arrived very quickly. I've yet to test them on an airport run, but they look very sturdy and the twist clasp, although easy to open and close, appears to be very secure. Very smart appearance.*Update* Tag endured flights to and from Manchester to Florida, it got bashed around in the hire car as we tried to squeeze suitcases in the boot of the Dodge, it was flung around the carousel in both airports and came out still attached by the sturdy cable without so much as a scratch. Very, very impressed. First time I've ever attached a luggage tag and still had it by the time I got home. Definitely deserves the 5* reviews.

I bought these for a specific reason - to identify quickly specifc equipment when it is in identical protective cases. For that, and to appear more professional then simply writing on a sticky label, these are fine, albeit very expensive for something so insubstantial. However, I don't think that they are fit for purpose as all-round luggage tags, intended to go through airline luggage handling systems. These are much too flimsy, being of thin and easily distorted metal. I would not take these on a flight; I even have to be careful packing the car with them on. In addition, I have used these metal screw-in cables on other luggage tags, and my experience is that they come apart far too easily. Unless you glue them together, don't expect to see them in baggage reclaim too often, except possibly on the floor, if you're lucky.

Unlike some "luggage tags", these are serious business! Constructed very well of aluminium, they will take a "regular size" business card, either in portrait or landscape layout (with a caution - if printed to the edge, this edge-printing would not be visible), and secured to the case using a short steel hawser with a threaded coupling. Templates (free) are available for both "serious" labels (name, address, etc), but also "fun" labels (paws off, not your bag, don't even think it, etc), as well as plain colour swatches (not sure where these come into use!). Either way, well-made and secure well - thoroughly recommended.
