im pretty happy with the wet okole seat covers, didnt want to do leather since it might burn my a$$ during a sunny bright day. i park the truck at a parking lot most of the time so there is no shade at all.
also the wet okole is pretty waterproof.

Wet okole’s look like something I’d be interested in, but I’m a natural hot box, and I’ve heard they get really hot and sweaty.
I'm very happy with my Coverking CR-Grade Neoprene seat covers. Bought them to protect my leather seats. They fit nice, seem durable (haven't had them very long) and were fairly simple to install. The seat heaters still work with them, although it does take a little longer for them to get warm.
Bought them thru ebay, was a little cheaper than the Coverking website. About $230.

Wet Okole neoprenes. They've been really comfortable for me, and the neoprene's a must because I'm pretty vigorously sweaty... and often rolling in the dirt.
I tried the Coverking neosupremes and was unhappy with the fit and functionality, but that's IMO.

I put the Neosupremes on my son's Mustang and didn't feel they were as good as the CR-Grade neoprene. But they are less expensive so they probably shouldn't be.

I had clazzio's on my prius in the past. Loved them! they fit amazing and everyone that got in the car thought they were factory leather seats.

Makes sense. My buddy put the CR neoprenes in his LC and really likes them, so it was probably just the lower quality neosupremes that turned me off.
Two things come to mind:
1] Had Wet Okoles, in my Ram Charger years ago, looked great, fit great, lots of static discharge when it cooler out, and the seat edge wore quickly.
2] Had a Mercedes '83 240D [W123 chasis] ( in 1997?)shortly after the Ram was gone, came with really expensive wool seat covers. Sold the car kept the covers. Found out last fall the seat covers fit my NON SRS 4runner seats perfect. So the drivers seat now has a wool seat cover on it.
Still have a new 4runner seat cover put away, was going to replace the one that has worn thru the bolster, but the wool seat cover was a more expedient solution.
