This foot is very useful for sewing materials such as vinyl cloth, synthetic leather, thin leather, etc. These materials are difficult to feed when sewing. The walking foot prevents such materials from crumpling, slipping or sticking between presser foot and material due to even feeding of upper and lower materials.

NOTE:

Use this foot only for straight sewing and zigzag stitching. Do not use other patterns.
