More About This Product:

I’ve met a whole lot of bootmakers who swear by the 5550BB for one reason. It just does the job right. You get full control over your stitch length and tension, even on tricky designs. The roller foot glides smooth without dragging or distorting your work, and the LED lamp keeps your detail lines lit without throwing shadows. It’s not built for heavy skirting leather or multi-layer saddlework, but for topwork and flat pieces, it’s an absolute workhorse. This thing was made to sit in a shop and stay busy.
