Jeans foot #8 is especially suited for sewing straight-stitched seams in tough, heavy fabrics such as denim, linen or canvas. Multi-layered fabrics also benefit from its special design.

When combined with the straight-stitch plate and its narrow needle opening, which gives the needle the greatest possible stability, the flat sole of this foot makes it easier for the foot to glide over the thick layers of fabric.

Compatible with both 5.5mm and 9mm machines.  While designed for a 5.5mm maximum width, it works perfectly for utility sewing on 9mm machines, although it will not utilize the full 9mm width capacity.  Foot #8C works best on 9mm machines.
