Special delivery! Adding two more braiders to our Braidy Bunch. The demand for our braided thread has been greater than we could have hoped for, and we look forward to pushing out even more.

About five years ago we started learning how to make braided thread - having only manufactured twisted thread before, we had a lot to learn. Safe to say, it's gone well - our small leather goods customers love having the braided option for a cleaner, more polished look - and our larger boot manufacturing companies love it for their sole stitchers.

Demand is steadily growing, and we're trying to keep up. We've got two more braiders on the way to satisfy demand, and hopefully to add a handful of new colors to our line of waxed cords. Stay tuned!
