    Product Details

    When a seam needs to work hard, Gütermann Extra Strong Thread is built for exactly that. Made from 100% polyester, this heavy-duty thread is engineered to withstand serious pressure, making it the go-to choice for jeans, heavy woven fabrics, leather, canvas covers, and rugged repair work.

    Finer than Gütermann's Top Stitch thread but every bit as tough, Extra Strong combines genuine durability with a surprisingly soft, elastic handle — meaning it forms smooth, uniform stitches that won't pucker, even on the toughest fabrics. It's also tear-resistant, fade-resistant and shrink-resistant, holding up beautifully to repeated wear and washing.

    A few places this thread loves to land:

    • Repairing and top-stitching jeans
    • Upholstery and furnishings
    • Buttonholes and outerwear
    • Leather goods and canvas covers
    • Bag and sleeping bag repairs
    • Rugged, heavy-duty repair work

    Recommended needle: Universal Needle 90–110, or a Schmetz Topstitch 90 for machine sewing. For best results, use the same thread in the bobbin as you have through the top needle.
