I make whatever the customer orders. All my stuff I sew with bonded polyester thread that is outdoor related.

I use 138 bonded poly & 346 bonded poly in black or white.

1) I buy my thread at Laederiet

2) I prefer Amann as brand, I use Serafil for machine work and Serabraid for handwork

3) Thread usage pr month: 5 yards of Serafil TEX 270, 20 yards of  Serafil TEX 135, 20 yards of Serafil TEX 70, maybe 5 yards total of Serabraid TEX 380 or TEX 500.

4) Two colours mainly, black and white. with black being the most used colour. Occasionally some other colours in TEX 70 for zippers in riding boots.

5) 14$ for a spool of Serafil, and 45$ for Serabraid

6) Polyester and waxed polyester, (Serafil and Serabraid), it is a consistent quality and works well for my purposes. 

In addition I use a small amount of waxed linen thread to repair old objects. The colours used here are nature (off white), black and brown.
