Leggings

Leggings

Leggings contain seams which are engineered to deliver high levels of stretch, strength and comfort. The selection of sewing threads for these seams is therefore critical. Coats has a broad range of sewing threads which when used in combination, can deliver strong highly extensible and comfortable seams.

Depending on the required final quality, alternative thread types may be used. Thread size will determine needle size.

For more information, check out our recommendations below.

The sewing thread recommendations laid out above are intended as a guide to aid the construction of garments with good quality seams. As garments of the same generic type differ in terms of fabric substrate and construction, and both making up methods and post make up processing can greatly vary, these recommendations should be viewed as a good starting point for thread selection.

Garment specific recommendations for thread and needle selection as well as accurate thread consumption figures and onsite technical support can be obtained by contacting your local Coats’ office.

These recommendations and consumption figures are intended as a guide only and are given in good faith but without warranty or liability on the company or its employees.
