Sheepskin seat covers

Does anyone have sheepskin in their 3rd Gen?
My 2001 limited leather is still intact at 250k miles. .
I’d like to protect the seats from wear.
Any pics or suggestions on where to buy?

I'll have to check the brand on my seat covers. The PO put them on 12 or so years ago to protect the front seats, and they are magnificently comfortable on the hottest days we get here in TX.

I had sheepskins in my Green 3rd Gen when I bought it. I ripped them off after about 10 minutes of swamp ass.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
My dogs are banned from the Toy until I get these seats covered.

Sheepskin Seat Covers

I have sheepskin seat covers on both front seats of my '02. Up here in Vancouver the climate is more on the cooler side so sheepskin does seem to be at home here. Sheepskin is an insulator so even in the summer it will buffer you from the heat, however, it does feel different from upholstery which not everyone likes.

That said, I used a company called Shear Comfort. Don't get a universal cover though. Stick with a Custom or Tailor Made level. The more you pay the quality of the sheepskin is amazing. The Tailor Made sheepskin is buttery soft. Not like the universal stuff that feels like an old itchy sweater.

Can you tell I'm a fan of sheepskin?

PS: if the dog rides in the back seat the Cordura seat covers are the way to go.

Exclamation

Thanks gents.
From your responses I am looking at this.

Front Seats: ShearComfort Custom Waterproof Cordura Seat Covers for Toyota 4Runner (1996-2002) in Tan for Buckets w/Adjustable Headrests https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DS6HNPK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_FdHlFb2TDZHP2
Wet Okoles look nice but cordura should protect better.
Thoughts?

These look like a great option.
Just wondering how these are working out and how does the tan match with the oak interior?
