Natural and calm: Olive suits canvas, linen and anything that belongs outdoors. Number 9250, 100 m of yardage: with those figures you find this tone again for your next pair of trousers. Raise the tension a little so the topstitching lies taut.
This thread is meant for visible topstitching on jeans — heavier than ordinary sewing thread and deliberately conspicuous. The thread is colourfast and survives the washing a pair of jeans takes over years. A jeans needle belongs with it; a universal needle breaks on thick layers. The spool covers topstitching on several pairs of trousers.
What Gütermann Denim Jeansnähgarn Oliv is suitable for
- topstitching on jeans
- topstitching on denim jackets
- pocket bags and patch pockets
Sewing tips
- Eine Jeansnadel der Stärke 90 bis 110 verwenden, sonst bricht sie an dicken Lagen.
- Für die Ziernaht das Denim-Garn als Oberfaden, unten normales Nähgarn in passender Farbe.
- Stichlänge auf drei bis dreieinhalb Millimeter stellen, das sieht an Jeans richtig aus.
- An dicken Stellen langsam nähen und notfalls das Handrad drehen.
- Fadenspannung etwas erhöhen, damit die Steppnaht straff liegt.

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to change the tension?
Usually yes, a touch tighter. Heavy thread needs more pull for topstitching to lie flat. A test piece on the same layers answers faster than any settings table.
Can I assemble the trousers with it?
Better not. Structural seams take ordinary sewing thread; this one is meant for the visible seam. At the limit the seam construction counts for more than thread weight.
How far does one spool go?
Across topstitching on several pairs of trousers. Since only the top thread uses it and topstitching runs short, the spool lasts longer than its length first suggests.
Does the seam survive washing?
Yes. The thread is polyester, colourfast and strong. A pair of jeans is washed often and warm, and that is exactly what this thread is built for — the topstitching loses neither colour nor strength.
