Lacing with natural Kangaroo

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I want to invest in some 1/4" Kangaroo lace for my motorcycle seats, but I can't afford to get every color right now. Is it possible to buy a natural product and dye it with my project once laced? Also for some projects I might want to "dip" dye it a certain color to get a contrast with the color of the seat. I was looking at Springfield leather and they have some of the natural product, is this a good fit for what I'm doing? I've used some 1/8" lacing before on seats and it seems to tear at the glue seam, and also the 1/8" lacing takes forever to do because the spacing is so small to cover up your seam.

Thanks,

~Ken

I use kangaroo lace from Jim Downey and I dye it to get the colors I need. I would guess you could do the same with lace from Springfield Leather. Might want to ask them just to be sure.

Not sure what you guys pay,check out http://www.lefflerleather.com.au/ then go to the online store.....160 feet of 1/4 inch natural kangaroo...AU $103 ....they will deliver overseas.

If you want to search their online store, the inventory code for the lacing is THOFLANATROL6

If you become a member, the discount is up to 33%, not sure if membership is available to overseas customers.

cheers
