Silver Creek Leather Co. - Realeather Waxed Thread
Realeather Waxed Thread
Stitch leather confidently with pre-waxed thread that glides smoothly
Heavy-duty polyester construction handles the mechanical stress of piercing thick leather without fraying or breaking mid-stitch. Silver Creek waxes this thread to reduce friction as it passes through punched holes, making hand-stitching smoother while helping the thread grip itself in locked stitches. The wax coating also adds water resistance that protects finished seams from moisture damage.
Each 25-yard card provides enough length for multiple small projects, wallets, key fobs, belt loops, or substantial yardage for a single larger piece like a bag or holster. Four color options let you match thread to leather tone or create deliberate contrast stitching for visual interest. The manageable card format prevents tangling and makes it easy to estimate remaining thread during a project.
This waxed polyester works particularly well for saddle stitching and other traditional hand-sewing techniques where you need thread that stays taut and resists loosening over time. The combination of synthetic strength and wax treatment delivers the handling characteristics leatherworkers expect from quality hand-stitching thread without the expense of linen alternatives.
