Why Event Organizers Choose Custom Cloth Wristbands

Custom cloth wristbands streamline entry and zone control for multi-day events. Pair woven or printed fabric with RFID/QR and role-based data to move crowds faster and cut pass-back. As a leading provider of custom cloth wristbands, we offer the perfect solution that combines security, comfort, and unforgettable branding.

Tamper Proof & Tear-Resistant

Our custom cloth wristbands use a non-twist barrel lock and rugged woven construction. Once applied, they can’t be removed without cutting—protecting your gates and reducing pass-back.

Comfortable All-Day Wear

Woven from soft fabric, these custom cloth wristbands are a comfortable upgrade from Tyvek or plastic. Designed for multi-day use, they stay light on the wrist through heat, sweat, and long shifts.

Secure Access Control

We offer embedded RFID tags, sequentially numbered wristbands, QR codes, and custom barcodes, ensuring you have the precise level of access control you need for a safe and seamless event experience.

Memorable Keepsake

High-quality fabric and full-color branding turn custom cloth wristbands into souvenirs attendees actually keep—extending your brand long after the event.

Custom Cloth Wristband FAQs

Cloth wristbands are a convenient and secure alternative to digital or paper wristbands and tickets. They’re an ideal solution for multi-day events, conventions, sporting events, or any other ticketed occasion. Depending on your needs, our durable cloth wristbands can serve a range of purposes. They can be used for secure entry, to pay for refreshments and merchandise at cashless events, and more.

Yes, cloth wristbands are extremely secure. Unlike standard digital or paper tickets, our custom wristbands are a unique and tamper-proof security solution. We offer a range of methods to ensure your cloth wristbands are impossible to duplicate. Explore customizable security options like sequential numbering, QR codes, barcodes, RFID tags, and more.


Our cloth wristbands are adjustable to accommodate a range of wrist sizes, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit for every event-goer. Shop single-use cloth wristbands with barrel lockers, which can slide to tighten to a comfortable size, but cannot slide backwards to loosen. Conversely, explore reusable cloth wristbands with sliders that can be tightened and loosened according to your attendees’ needs.

The ability to reuse a cloth wristband depends on its design. Single-use cloth wristbands with barrel locks are intended for one-time use only and must be cut off and discarded after the event. On the other hand, reusable cloth wristbands are designed to be worn, removed, and reused as needed, offering a more flexible option for multi-day events.

Single-use cloth wristbands cannot be torn due to their durable material. They must be cut with a pair of scissors for removal. In contrast, reusable cloth wristbands can be easily loosened and removed without causing any damage. This allows attendees to keep their wristbands as mementos or reuse them for future events, depending on their needs.
