Threads India makes this thread for the export trade, where it is bought by the carton and judged on whether it holds up. We stock it on the 400 metre spool so you can buy one shade at a time, and every shade costs the same.
At 0.8 mm it is the general-purpose gauge — heavy enough for bag straps, belt keepers and anything that takes daily load, still fine enough that a wallet does not end up looking over-stitched. The braid is waxed to a calibrated finish, so it grips the stitch and glides through the hole without soiling the leather or leaving wax on your fingers.
By the Numbers
What Sets It Apart
🪢 Braided, Not Twisted
A high braiding level means it will not unwind into separate plies mid-stitch.
✨ Calibrated Wax Finish
Enough wax to hold the stitch, not enough to soil light coloured leather.
🏅 Oeko-Tex Certified
Tested against the standard for harmful substances — safe next to the skin.
🏭 Export Quality, Made in India
The same spool the export trade buys, finished specifically for hand stitching.
