A seat cover acts like a reliable sidekick to your car’s leather seats, shielding them from UV rays, spills, crumbs, pet slobber and other stuff that can age the seats and detract from the resale value of the vehicle. But it’s important to choose the right seat cover based on your lifestyle and budget. There are many different materials, designs and brands to consider.
Leather look is a popular choice for Uber and taxi drivers because it’s tough, waterproof and easy to clean. It’s also more durable than most fabric covers. However, it’s often more expensive than other materials and it can get hot in the summer and cold in the winter.
If you want to beat the heat and save money, try a mesh material. It’s not as soft as velour but it can be just as comfortable and breathable. It’s also a good choice for those who live in areas with extreme temperatures since it allows air to flow through the seats and maintain a cooler temperature.
If you’re looking for a durable and affordable option, try Black Duck. Their reversible Loft Bench Seat Cover is made from water-resistant Microtomic Ripstop fabric and comes in resplendent Coastal Blue or refined classic Charcoal Grey. It’s designed for cars with front bucket and rear bench seats that have removable headrests. Reviewers say the fabric is both durable and soft with a foam padding for extra comfort. The seat covers can be machine washed to keep them clean.
