🧵 John James Glovers Needles - Set of 8 High-Quality Sewing Needles Review

These needles are somewhat fragile and may break if dulled. I'm giving it four stars because of the fragility. Other needles I've used just bent and lost their shape. Considering their price per needle I would seriously recommend them to anyone in the leather sewing industry.

This size (#2) has been recommended by several sites. I work with suede and buffalo leather and a size 2 is too small for this job. However, they are very sharp and of good quality and the seller received them as promised. I would recommend both.

These needles are a step above other glove needles I've used. I work with skins which are sometimes difficult to prick and sew, but with these needles I have had no problems pricking. They are a bit more expensive, but the quality is definitely worth the extra price.

I bought these for a leather quiver I make for my daughter after the tandy pins I bought started breaking (9 out of 10 broke even though the holes were pre-punched) . After they arrived I tested one on a two layer 8 oz vegetable tanned, 9-10 oz vegetable covered in thick goatskin (equivalent to another 6-7 oz for a total thickness of 15-16 oz) and a triple blend of 8 oz Vegetables (even though they were removed, they were still 5/16+ inch thick).
