SCHMETZ Leather Sewing Machine Needles — 100 qty Size 90/14
SCHMETZ Leather Sewing Machine Needles are made for clean, controlled stitching through leather, faux leather, paper, and heavy non-woven materials. These needles use a left twist cutting point that helps pierce leather more efficiently than a standard sewing needle, creating a cleaner stitch hole with less resistance.
These are a great shop supply for makers working on leather patches, shoe uppers, bags, wallets, apparel details, repairs, craft projects, and small leather goods. The cutting point is designed specifically for leather-style materials, helping your machine sew more consistently through tougher surfaces.
The 90/14 size is a solid mid-weight option for leatherwork where you need more bite than a universal needle, but do not need an oversized heavy-duty needle.
Built For
These needles are designed for leather-specific sewing work, including:
Shoe uppers, leather patches, bags, wallets, small leather goods, accessories, apparel details, paper projects, faux leather, and leather repair work.

Shop Use
Use these needles when sewing leather or faux leather projects where a universal needle is not cutting cleanly through the material. The leather point helps open the stitch hole as the needle passes through, giving you better penetration and a cleaner stitch line.
For best results, match the needle size to your material thickness and thread size. Avoid using leather needles on regular woven or knit fabric, since the cutting point can slice fabric fibers instead of separating them.
