Matt T Posted March 3, 2016 Report Posted March 3, 2016 (edited) I'm excited to announce the arrival of a new line of thread which goes by the name of Slam, and is a product of Italy. I've had trouble in the past finding a supplier who can produce 0.6mm, and 0.8mm with high quality and consistency. This thread fits the bill, and after working with it I am very happy with the results. I have not yet had a chance to take photos of example stitching, but those will come. http://lekoza.com/Thread/ Edited March 3, 2016 by Matt T Quote Leathercraft supplies
King's X Posted March 3, 2016 Report Posted March 3, 2016 They look promising. I hope they work out well for you. Quote Greetings from Central Texas! The Grain Side Up blog #TheGrainSideUp
Members cem Posted March 3, 2016 Members Report Posted March 3, 2016 Cool, I'd heard of them before tried to order some but they wanted me to order a box at a time of each colour which would take me quite a few life times to get through. Is the blue brighter than Tiger ie more Royal than Navy they sent me pics and it seems to be but it's hard to tell from screens. Quote
Members Cajunfighter Posted March 10, 2016 Members Report Posted March 10, 2016 Ordering some now. Looking forward to trying something to replace the sometimes hard to find tiger thread haha Quote
Members Nuttish Posted March 10, 2016 Members Report Posted March 10, 2016 Would you do us a solid and upload a pic of the thread taken apart to show the braid and yarns? Quote
Members garrettwp Posted March 13, 2016 Members Report Posted March 13, 2016 I was just going to email you asking when you expected to get the new thread in. I went on your site to get your contact information and was presented with the new thread. I was having a hard time the last two weeks trying to order from Abbey England and most of the thread that I ordered was back ordered by 1 to several months. I then was going to order from Maine Thread, until I saw this. Will be placing a order soon! Perfect timing. - Garrett Quote

Members garrettwp Posted March 14, 2016 Members Report Posted March 14, 2016 Matt, Just wanted to give you a heads up that there appears to be an error with the cart. When placing 5 rolls of 0.6mm thread in the cart, the total cost of those 5 rolls comes to 499.75 and not the 99.95 sale price. It appears that it is adding the cost of 99.95 to each roll and not the total. - Garrett Quote

Members Cajunfighter Posted March 14, 2016 Members Report Posted March 14, 2016 (edited) Got my order in of the Slam Ecru.8mm thread in and got some stitching done. Feels nice. Not quite as waxy as Tiger Thread in .8mm but still for the price is very nice. Looking forward to getting some more colors and work done with it. Edited March 14, 2016 by Cajunfighter Quote
