My family has been in shoe repair for over 40 years and I have never seen a double needle outsoler. You typical outsoler does have a guide on it so you can adjust where the stitch is going to hit the welt. They most likely have a guard set at different depths and stitch it twice. If you look at the bottom right side of the pic the stitches are closer together. That wouldn't happen on a double needle.

Ariat is one of the boot companies to make this double row popular over the past few years. But I can't find if they just double stitch it or not.

Thanks for the only help recurved on this topic...

What is recurved ?
dictionary says ..










bent or curved backwards.







..relevancy ?

Your original post..( up there ^^^which you appear to have forgotten had two sentences..
1st sentence was










I’m looking for a sole stitcher for making boots, and want to know which ones are capable of doing the popular double stitch?








Had you looked more closely at the photos that you supplied yourself ( and that we all saw ) and had you "seen" what we all did ( that the stitches were obviously not made at the same time, by any machine, because they were not parallel, as some of us said, including arashikage ( whom you just quoted ) ) you'd not have asked "which ones are capable of doing the popular double stitch?" ..you'd have realised ( as we all did, and we all said to you ) that your photos did not show "a double stitch", but they actually, obviously, showed two rows of stitching, done one after the other, because they converged..What on earth makes you think that any "attachment" is required to stitch two rows of stitching if they are done one after the other..

Even your thread title..that you posted..

Sole stitcher that’ll do double row stitching!



By turbotexas, April 14 in Leather Sewing Machines


was perfectly clear that you were looking for a Sole stitcher that’ll do double row stitching!

Or maybe you just don't want to accept that you goofed..everyone does at some time..But your insistence that everyone else is wrong.. and that you did not post originally thinking that it was some kind of "special machine" ( machines do indeed exist that do two parallel lines of stitching, just not to attach soles , they have two needles, and they make parallel lines, not converging ones, like in your photo ), or that you could get a twin needle "attachment" to do that in "one pass"..like on a domestic machine..is making you look foolish.


Twin needle machines are used on shoe or boot "uppers", for decorative effects ( amongst other things ) but not to attach soles..
