Hang a Tag That Catches the Light
Before a shopper reads a word, the foil on a metallic hangtag has already caught their eye. That accent prints on the front, so your logo, border, or lettering glints the moment the tag is picked up. Every tag comes on a sturdy 16pt gloss cover and arrives drilled with a single hole at the top center, ready to string off a garment, a bottle, or a gift. Sets of 500 start at $126.32 and hold a 4.6 out of 5 across 5 reviews.
These tags do quiet work for a brand. The foil accent tells a shopper the item is worth more before they check the price, and the 16pt gloss stock gives even a slim tag real weight in the hand.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 500 starts at $126.32, about 25 cents a tag, and the per-tag cost keeps sliding as the count climbs to 25,000, so a full order for a season or a product line costs far less per tag than a small test batch.

What Is a Metallic Hangtag?
A metallic hangtag is a printed product tag finished with a metallic foil accent on the front and drilled with a single hole so it strings onto merchandise. At 4OVER4 these tags print on 16pt gloss cover in 9 sizes from 1.5" x 3.5" up to 3.5" x 3.5", with the size, ink coverage, coating, and metallic accent all set in the live configurator.
A hang tag is the small printed tag that hangs off a product and tells a shopper what they are holding: the brand, the price, the size, the care. The metallic version adds a foil accent to the front, so the tag glints the moment someone picks it up. You get one stock here, a sturdy 16pt gloss cover, printed full color on the front with the metallic accent, and either a blank back or full color on both sides. Every tag comes drilled with one 1/8" hole at the top center, ready for twine, ribbon, or a plastic loop. For the plain-paper version without the shine, the Standard Hang Tags sit right beside it as the everyday pick.

What Sizes Do Metallic Hangtags Come In?
4OVER4 metallic hangtags come in 9 sizes, from a slim 1.5" x 3.5" default up to a 3.5" x 3.5" square, including 1.75" x 3.5", 2" x 2", and 2" x 3.5". You can also order a custom size up to 4" x 6", and the price follows the size you pick.
The default is a slim 1.5" x 3.5" tag, the classic apparel shape that hangs neatly off a garment. Step up to 1.75" x 3.5" or 2" x 3.5" for more print room, choose a 2" x 2" square for a compact token, or go to the 3.5" x 3.5" square when you want the tag to read as its own little card. Nine set sizes in all, and if none is exactly right you can order a custom size up to 4" x 6". All 9 sizes are grouped below the way the live configurator lists them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
Wally adds the shimmer, not the cost
Why a metallic foil tag makes a product feel worth more.
A metallic foil accent on the front makes a hang tag catch light the second a shopper picks it up, and 500 start at $126.32. Print full color, pick from 9 sizes, and Wally drills the hole at top center so it strings straight onto your product.
How Does the Metallic Foil Accent Work?
The metallic accent is a metallic foil applied to the front of the tag, so a logo or detail catches light like real foil. At 4OVER4 you print the front in full color with the accent and leave the back blank (4/0), or print full color on both sides (4/4). You then finish the tag with no coating, a High Gloss UV coat, or a Spot UV accent on the front.
This is the part that earns the name. A metallic foil accent goes on the front of the tag, so your logo, border, or lettering shimmers instead of sitting flat. You control how far the color goes: 4/0 prints full color on the front and leaves the back blank, and 4/4 prints full color on both sides when you want copy, care instructions, or a barcode on the reverse. For the surface you choose no coating for a clean gloss-cover face, a High Gloss UV coat that makes the whole front pop, or a Spot UV accent that adds a raised, glossy highlight to a chosen area.
Three coating choices, one metallic accent, and a stock built to hold them. For a fully foiled front the Metallic Foil Hangtags go further, and the Metallic Ink Hangtags reach the same shine with metallic ink instead.
Do Metallic Hangtags Come Pre-Drilled, and How Do You Proof?
Yes. Every 4OVER4 metallic hangtag is drilled with a single 1/8" hole at the top center, ready to string. Before printing you can go straight to production or request a free online proof, and you upload print-ready PDF, JPG, or PNG files.
Each tag ships with one 1/8" hole drilled at the top center, so it strings straight onto a product with twine, ribbon, or a plastic loop with no extra step. On files, you upload print-ready PDF, JPG, or PNG artwork. When you order you pick your proofing: go straight to production to save time, or request a free online proof to check your layout, the metallic accent placement, and the trim before anything runs. Two proof paths, both built to keep a foil job from surprising you.
What Are Metallic Hangtags Used For?
Metallic hangtags work as retail and apparel hang tags, boutique price tags, gift and product tags, and packaging accents, where the metallic foil signals a premium product the moment a shopper touches it. 4OVER4 prints them on a standard 7 business day turnaround from proof approval.
Standard production for metallic hangtags is 7 business days from proof approval. As for where they go: apparel brands string them off garments as the tag a shopper reads first, boutiques use them as price tags that feel expensive, and product makers hang them off bottles, candles, and gift sets. The metallic accent does quiet work here, telling a shopper the item is worth more before they read a word. Pair the foil front with full color on the back and a Spot UV coat, and a small tag starts carrying a big brand.
How Do Metallic Hangtags Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Metallic hangtags are the pick when you want shine without a fully foiled front, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a full foil face, a metallic ink finish, or a plain-paper baseline, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up metallic hangtags against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
