Description

A premium braided stitching thread for leatherworkers, saddlers, bag makers and craft professionals who want strong, durable seams with refined hand‑stitched appeal. This Tiger Thread 0.6 mm — presented on a generous 1000 m spool in classic black (JK23) — is a high‑quality waxed braided polyester thread known for its exceptional strength, smooth feed and attractive finish on a variety of leather projects.

Braided polyester threads like Tiger Thread are widely favoured in leathercraft because they provide a perfect balance between flexibility, abrasion resistance and tensile strength. The waxed coating helps the thread glide smoothly through needle holes, reduces fraying and drag, and allows stitches to seat neatly on the surface — delivering both functional durability and a clean aesthetic that enhances handcrafted seams.


Key Features:

  • 0.6 mm braided polyester — ideal balance of size and strength for medium‑weight leather stitching.

  • 1000 m spool — generous length suited to larger projects and consistent workshop use.

  • Waxed finish — smooth feeding, reduced fray and enhanced stitch presentation.

  • Classic black (JK23) — versatile colour suited to a wide range of leather tones and applications.

  • Durable and resilient — maintains seam integrity even under frequent handling and stress.

Whether you’re hand‑stitching wallets, bags, harnesses or straps, this Tiger Thread delivers robust performance and professional‑looking stitch lines, making it a trusted choice for both traditional and contemporary leathercraft projects.

    Absolutely great

    I am not a saddle maker, but I have made bags, belts, bridles and reins where strength and «elegance» is needed, and this thread has delivered for me absolutely perfectly. It does not easily frey, it wears well when sewing, and is that little bit thinner than the 0.8 which actually has meant a great deal. Wish it came in smaller spools, but there you are.
