I am from the USA and can not find the non-stretch tape used for watch bands or the De Havilland Travel Bag. I have looked at the previous post concerning this topic and no solutions were offered for US artist. The link provided is in a language I do not speak and Google translate did not work. Thank you for the help.

This stuff seems to be some mysterious material who's whereabouts are apparently only known to the Illuminati. IF it helps any, I've used ribbon. Plain, basic, nylon ribbon. Don't believe it? - Wrap some around your fists and pull as hard as you can. There.
I get my tape from this Canadian supplier:
Fyi here is a source for Nylon tape. Comes from Romania but shipping to the US is reasonable. I picked up a roll of the 10mm and seems like good stuff.

Thank you a ton. I will try the rip-stop.
@Russ have you considered ripstop? I bought a yard of it for $7.99 at Joann.
That tape linked above claims "ultra thin" at 0.25mm. The ripstop measures 0.08mm. It is very stretch resistant. I have tried to pull as hard as I can on a 20mm wide strip and it doesn't budge. I've also tried to rip it and cannot. You will have to glue it yourself of course.
RM leather sells an option. https://www.rmleathersupply.com/products/premium-non-stretch-tape-high-strength-reinforcement-0-25mm?variant=39677234544749
It comes in sheets not in a role like Phil has in the vids, but does the same thing. You just have to cut it in strips. They sell it in white or black.
