Why Choose Suede Leather Cord?

Suede leather cords offer several advantages that make them perfect for bracelet designs:

Soft and Comfortable

The velvety surface feels gentle against the skin and is ideal for daily wear.

Elegant Texture

Suede offers a matte, luxurious look that works well with casual and formal styles.

Flexible and Easy to Work With

Unlike some stiffer leathers, suede bends and knots easily.

Rich Colour Options

Suede absorbs dye beautifully, making it available in bold shades, natural tones, and modern colours.

Ideal for Layering and Minimalist Designs

It works well on its own or combined with metal beads, sliders, and charms.

These qualities make suede bracelets highly popular among consumers, boutiques, online sellers, and gift makers.


Materials You Need

To create a suede leather bracelet with a magnetic clasp, gather the following materials:

Round Suede Leather Cord

Available in many colours and widths — typically 2 mm to 4 mm.
Sun Enterprises offers suede cords in hundreds of shades, ensuring a perfect match for your design.

Magnetic Clasp

Available in:

- Stainless steel

- Gold

- Rose gold

- Silver

- Matte black

- Custom colours

Choose a clasp with an inner diameter that perfectly matches your suede cord thickness.

Jewelry Glue

A strong, fast-drying adhesive (cyanoacrylate recommended).

Cutting Pliers

To cut the leather smoothly and precisely.

Measuring Tape

To measure the correct bracelet length.

Step 1: Measure the Wrist

A well-fitted bracelet depends on accurate measurement.

Wrap a measuring tape around the wearer’s wrist:

- Women’s average: 17–18 cm

- Men’s average: 19–21 cm

- Children’s average: 11–16 cm

Add 1 cm for comfort, depending on whether you want a snug or loose fit.


Step 2: Cut the Suede Leather Cord

Once you have the measurement:

  1. Mark the length on your suede cord.

  2. Cut cleanly using sharp cutting pliers.

  3. Check that both ends are even and smooth.

Suede should not fray if cut correctly, but clean ends help ensure a secure bond with the clasp.


Step 3: Choose and Prepare the Magnetic Clasp

Magnetic clasps elevate the bracelet by providing:

- A sleek, polished finish

- Secure closure

- Ease of use, especially helpful for customers with limited finger mobility

- A modern and elegant design

IMPORTANT:
The internal diameter of the clasp must match the suede cord size.

Sun Enterprises offers hundreds of magnetic clasps specially designed to fit round leather and suede cords, ensuring strong adhesion and a perfect finish.


Step 4: Attach the Suede Cord to the First Side of the Clasp

  1. Open one half of the magnetic clasp.

  2. Add a small drop of jewelry glue inside the clasp opening.

  3. Insert one end of the suede cord into the clasp.

  4. Hold firmly for a few seconds.

Avoid using too much glue — excess adhesive could spill out and damage the suede texture.


Step 5: Attach the Suede Cord to the Second Side of the Clasp

Repeat the same process:

  1. Apply a small amount of glue inside the second clasp half.

  2. Insert the other end of the suede cord.

  3. Hold securely to let the glue set.

Make sure the clasp halves align correctly so the magnetic sides snap together smoothly.

Allow the bracelet to rest for 5–10 minutes to dry fully.


Step 6: Add Optional Decorations

Suede bracelets can remain simple and elegant, but you can also personalize them with:

- Stainless steel beads

- Slider charms

- Metal tubes

- Pendants

- Rhinestone components

- Engraved elements

Sun Enterprises provides matching components in stainless steel, gold, rose gold, silver, and other finishes — perfect for creating cohesive bracelet designs.
