Just wondering if anyone knew where to buy the kevlar fabric? The stuff in the Draggin jeans?

Cheers

What'cha going to use it for? I sense an evening of sewing excitement coming up! I love sewing.

Trumpy (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/member.php?u=4150) had some he was going to sell to me, but I never got around to getting my old 1950's leather jacket measured up to use it.
Contact him.
If you do find a proper source, please tell me, as I still would like some.

Depends on how much you want. Have always bought what I needed from High Modulus in Auckland.

My mum is a fashion designer, she could make that sort of stuff up.

yeah, will be getting a decent amount to do some jeans, etc. Will let you know how the prototype turns out

I could use a couple of square meters, could you find out how much it is, and maybe they'd be more likely to sell to a small buyer if there were two of us?
Anyway, get back in touch if you find some.:sunny:

Since your mum made you a homosexual, if I got enough kevlar could she make me one too?

Eh what? You want my mum to make you a homosexual out of kevlar, like a big man-dolly for you? Or you want my mum to turn you into a homosexual in return for giving her kevlar? Your comment could be read both ways.
Please clarify...

I'm guessing u don't need any help to become a homosexual considering the froidian slip on that sentence.


I deal with High mod at work quite a bit, but thought it would be a different material, than that used in a boat. Will call them today and see what price I get.
