Foliage Green #32475 delivers the muted, grey-green military shade used across modern field gear, pouches, packs, and uniforms, keeping stitch lines consistent and low-visibility on Foliage Green fabrics, ripstop, and lightweight gear.

Rely on clear specs for efficient setup. This core-spun polyester Topthread is Tex 40 (T-40), offering a light- to medium-weight profile for clean, durable stitching on apparel-weight fabrics, lighter gear, and detail work. Packaging includes a 16 oz spool, providing generous yardage for larger runs, repairs, and project batches without frequent spool changes. Compatible with standard home sewing machines and commercial machines set up for light- to medium-weight thread. Test on scrap material to dial in needle size, tension, and stitch length.
Put this polyester thread to work on uniforms, lightweight tactical gear, pouches, bags, and general repairs where Foliage Green stitching matches military-spec fabrics and holds its color through regular wear and washing. Avoid using thread for load-bearing or safety-critical applications, such as climbing, lifting, towing, or restraint. For best results, use steady speed, correct tension, and a clean thread path to reduce friction and skipped stitches.
