Inside the clear box sit five gleaming needles in a row, each one marked with the blue and orange color coding of the 130/705 H-J system. In the magnified photo on the right, you can see the sturdy, slightly thickened point clearly, exactly the detail that makes this needle suitable for thick, tightly woven fabrics.

• Full package: 5 needles per pack. 20 packs per box

What is this material

These needles are made from high-quality steel with a special slender, sturdy point designed to punch through densely woven fibers without bending. Where a regular needle breaks quickly or skips stitches in denim, this jeans needle stays straight and stable. The reinforced shaft prevents the needle from deflecting when sewing multiple layers of thick fabric on top of each other, such as when hemming pants or attaching belt loops. Recognizable by the blue color marking on the shank, indicating system 130/705 H-J that fits nearly every household sewing machine. A must-have for anyone who regularly works with denim or other sturdy fabrics.

Applications and Projects

These jeans needles are essential whenever you work with sturdy, tightly woven fabrics. Think of:

• Sewing homemade jeans and denim skirts
• Reinforced hems and double topstitching in denim
• Bags and backpacks made from canvas or waxed cotton
• Work clothes and overalls from sturdy cotton
• Cushions and poufs with thick upholstery fabric
• Attaching belt loops and reinforced pockets
• Repairs to existing jeans and trousers
• Topstitching heavy bag fabric or faux leather
