Gütermann Super Resistant Cording Thread - 30 m - Jeans - No. 412

A classic of jean topstitching: this Gütermann corded thread in Jeans n° 412 takes up the golden ochre of the exposed seams of denim. It gives the pockets, hems and belts of trousers their look when you make or alter them.

Technical details

Inpolyester, this yarn is presented in a spool of30 m. The term "cord" refers to a thick, twisted thread, which forms a larger and more raised stitch than a standard sewing thread, such as on jean topstitching. The shadeJeans No. 412is a dense and warm ochre yellow that contrasts with the blue of denim. It is sold by the piece.

Use cases

• For a visible denim hem, lengthen the stitch and don't pull on the thread: a taut seam makes the denim gather.
• Reinforce the top of the pockets and belt loops with a stop strap: a few tight stitches on top of each other are enough.
• For a seam on a very thick area, move forward by hand with the ruffle: slow down avoid irregular stitches.

Pair it with metal shank buttons or rivets and raw denim. A woven label nicely complements home-stitched jeans.
