Going back 20 years or more, the choice of seat covers, to improve the look inside your vehicle, was severely limited and the majority fitted very poorly. In modern times, you can choose from washable seat covers, leather, suede, fur, velour and Coverking Neoprene seat covers. Which is best for you and why?
The problem with the old-fashioned seat covers is that they used to slip, considerably, but they are acceptable if you were covering old damaged or stained seats or where people just wanted to protect extremely good quality seats for when they sell the vehicle the next time.
Custom Fit Seat Covers
Fortunately, these days, you can purchase seat covers which are exact custom fits for virtually every car or truck. With a wide range of material choices, they are more likely to fit closely. The fit may be so good with your Coverking Neoprene seat covers that you may not realize it is not the original upholstery.
The best custom fit seat covers consider any switches or levers that you need to use after the cover has been applied as well as any airbags inside the side of seats and around center consoles, so that you still have complete access.
Washable seat covers are often made of cotton, which makes them easy to machine wash.
Coverking Neoprene seat covers and neo-supreme versions are more like a flexible rubber-based, thick, material. Should you have been scuba diving, the material will feel like the wetsuit. They are easily available with a variety of colorful options.
Leather Seat Covers Are a Difficult Choice
They look great and are especially at home within expensive vehicles, but they do need looking after and if you’re driving your truck in areas that get particularly hot or cold, you’ll spend plenty of time oiling the leather. In theory, they are easy to clean, but in practice it is easy to damage and stain the leather.
Some people insist that suede looks good for seat covers, but when you compare them with Coverking Neoprene Seat Covers, they are worlds apart. The latter is more impressive, easier to clean and more difficult to damage.
When you are choosing your new seat covers for your auto or truck, take time to read the reviews about how each material works best for your location and for the manner in which you intend to use your vehicle.
