1mm round leather thong desperately needed

[8thsinner]

I have taken the next step with getting supplies and started selling my bracelets seen in the show off thread...

But the supplier I used for 1mm leather black round thong is atrocious, it's cheap thong thats basically only varnished with colour.

So I need a good supplier of dyed through strong if possible black thong.

I knot it can be bought in england as I have aquired some before but god only knows which shoe shop that was in.

Can anyone recommend a good one preferably in the uk?

In this thread Topic, there are quite a few links for England:

Maybe someone can come up with a very specific answer, but this should help a little.

it's usa, but it might help anyway. http://www.leathercordusa.com/

Tandy sells 1 & 2mm goat (at least in the US). The natural stuff is VERY weak, the coloured (notice the 'u'), much stronger. I use a lot of the dyed stuff in 2mm, very little in 1mm. If you have hobby type stores in the UK, such as AC Moore or Michaels, they also may tend to carry it (very definitely Michaels has the 1mm in the US).

Thanks guys for the super fast feed back, I knew of usa cord and le prevo, but can anyone vouch for the quality. I have been thinking about using usa cords anyway for their bolo cords as the pics make the stuff look good, So failing everything else I will go with them cause they can provide two items.

I know bachelors in london too as one of those links posted, posted, as they where my supplier when I was in london.

But now I am in northern ireland and theres damn all here. our local craft shop sells...oh get this, waxed cords of all sizes, yeah read a total selection of 25 including about 15 colours....grrrr

Wish I could run my own craft shop.

Again many thanks for being on the ball tonight.
