    Another one of these 'where to buy' threads

    But I've googled this one to death and all I can come up with is a US site that wants $35 deliver for a $1 item and a few sites in the UK who cant deliver in time.

    I'm looking for a pair of velcro stick on or stitch on pads so I can fit knee sliders to a pair of leather pants. I dont want to start unpicking off my other pairs of pants. Anybody any ideas? I even tried googling for custom leather manufacturers in Canada but only got these silly people making leather waistcoats and chaps for badass Harley riders.

    I've even tried Fabricland to see if they sell velcro sheet, but all they do is the strips and I dont want strips.

    IM Leathers in Hamilton does a lot of custom work. All his suits have the velcro pads on them so i am sure he has a big roll/sheet of it.

    Give him a call and see if you can get a bit of it off him.

    I spoke to IM Leathers and they'll supply and fit for about $50. Thanks Caboose483 for the tip and everyone else who offered help.

    You can get it at most industrial distributors like Acklands Grainger or Unisource, the problem is the quantity. The best thing is talking to IM like you have or Mr. Bickle.
