Leather sewing machine needles from Schmetz use a cutting point to penetrate leather and similar suitable materials. They suit household sewing machines that require flat-shank needles, making them a practical choice when preparing a machine for leather sewing.

Choose a size to suit your material: the guide lists sizes 70/10 through 90/14 for thin leather, suede and vinyl, and sizes 100/16 and 110/18 for leather upholstery. These needles are not for knit or woven fabrics, and some synthetic leathers are unsuitable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these leather needles fit my household sewing machine?

These leather needles suit household sewing machines that require flat-shank needles. Check your machine's needle requirements against the 130/705 H LL system before choosing them.

Which needle sizes are recommended for thin leather or suede?

Sizes 70/10, 80/12 and 90/14 are listed for thin leather and suede. The same guide also lists vinyl for these sizes.

Which sizes are listed for leather upholstery?

Sizes 100/16 and 110/18 are listed for leather upholstery. Select the size appropriate to your material and your machine's requirements.

Can I use these needles on woven fabric or synthetic leather?

These leather needles are not for woven or knit fabrics. Some synthetic leathers are also unsuitable, so an artificial-leather recommendation does not mean every synthetic leather is compatible.
