1. 1990–1999

   Wide White Rectangle Tags

   Nineties FILA tags are wide white rectangles with a coloured logo and letter sizing, often with international sizes too; both standard and Magic Line used them.

   
   • 1990s Fila tags are wide rectangles
   • They are white with a coloured logo
   • Both normal and Magic Line fila from the 1990s used these tags
   • They all have letter sizing, with many having international sizes as well

   Value signal

   Strong; 90s FILA is a dependable vintage seller.

2. 2000–2009

   Navy & Black Loop Tags

   Tags stayed wide rectangles, with a loop version introduced and many shifting to navy or black; sizing sometimes moved to a separate tag.

   
   • FILA tags in the 2000s continued to be wide rectangles, with a loop tag version being introduced
   • They all included letter sizing, but sometimes on a separate tag
   • Many of the tags became either navy or black

   How to spot it

   Wide navy or black tags, sometimes with a loop.

   Value signal

   Common; modest resale.

3. 2010–2019

   Grey Tags & White Line

   Early-decade tags echoed the 2000s; grey tags with a small right-side logo followed, and the modern White Line marks a non-vintage piece.

   
   • In the early 2010s FILA tags were quite similar to the 2000s and were black with a white logo
   • Versions that were grey were introduced with the full logo being small on the right side
   • They included letter sizing
   • In the late 2010s large white tags were reintroduced, often on a clean white fabric that is quite different to the fabric used on 1990s white tags
   • White Line Fila was introduced and is a modern line which indicates the FILA piece is not vintage

   How to spot it

   Grey tags, or a 'White Line' label meaning modern.

   Value signal

   Modern; no vintage premium.
