Grossgrain Ribbon, 40mm Width by the meter
On heavy, padded bags made of strong fabrics thick edges will come about. For particularly thick seams, the 40mm grosgrain ribbon is best suited for edge binding because it has sufficient width to fit around the edges.
The width still leaves enough space to sew the tape comfortably. The grosgrain ribbon is very flexible and thin which makes it easy to fold and to wrap around edges. It is also stable enough to secure the seam in the long term. Only on edges that are exposed to high abrasion, you should use a thicker braid. Of course, the ribbon is still suitable for many other applications, such as ultralight webbing, for lightweight, soft loops etc..
