A premium braided stitching thread for leatherworkers, saddlers, bag makers and craft professionals who want exceptional seam strength with a bold, defined stitch profile. This Tiger Thread 1.2 mm — presented on a 500 m spool in classic black (JK23) — is a waxed braided polyester thread engineered for durability, smooth feed and striking hand‑stitched appearance on medium‑to‑heavy leather projects.

Braided polyester threads like Tiger Thread are widely respected in leathercraft for their outstanding tensile strength, abrasion resistance and flexibility. The waxed finish helps the thread glide effortlessly through needles and holes, reduces fraying and drag, and allows stitches to sit flat on the material’s surface — giving seams both functional durability and a neat, professional finish. The 1.2 mm diameter is ideal for pieces that benefit from prominent stitch lines and rugged performance, such as belts, bags, harness components and saddlery work.

Key Features:

• 1.2 mm braided polyester construction — robust and resilient for demanding hand‑stitched seams.

• 500 m spool — generous length for substantial projects and regular workshop use.

• Waxed finish — smooth feeding with reduced fray and friction.

• Classic black (JK23) — versatile colour that pairs with a wide range of leather tones.

• Durable and wear‑resistant — helps maintain seam integrity under heavy use.
