How to Use the NEXUS Thread Color Chart
Compare Colors with Your Material
Place the color reference next to the leather, fabric or other material you plan to sew. Compare under the lighting conditions that matter for the finished product.
Record the NEXUS Color Code
Once you identify the closest shade, record the corresponding NEXUS color code so you can select the same color when ordering thread.
Choose the Thread Size You Need
After confirming the color, select the bonded nylon thread size that fits your material, machine and stitch requirements.
Review Before Shipment
NEXUS can provide pre-shipment photo verification so you can review the actual product and color being prepared before dispatch.
Screen Color vs Physical Color Reference
Thread colors shown online are useful for browsing, but screen brightness, monitor calibration, photography and ambient light can change how a color appears. For projects where color choice matters, use a physical color chart as the primary reference before placing a larger thread order.
Choose Your Bonded Nylon Thread Size
- Tex 70 — Finer profile for footwear, leather goods and detailed machine sewing
- Tex 90 — Balanced option for leather, bags, footwear and upholstery
- Tex 135 — Medium-heavy thread for leather, bags, upholstery and canvas
- Tex 210 — Heavy thread for heavy leather, canvas, webbing and larger visible stitches
- Tex 270 — Very heavy thread for thick materials and substantial machine-sewn seams
Not sure which size fits your project? Compare all bonded nylon thread sizes.
When Should You Order a Color Chart?
- You are choosing thread for a new leather, footwear, bag or upholstery project.
- You need to compare several similar shades against the actual material before ordering.
- You are preparing a larger or repeat thread order where consistent color selection matters.
