Default SEAT COVER POLL - TREK ARMOR vs. WET OKOLE

The first thing that I am doing to my 2013 JKUR when it gets delivered is put seat covers on. I am torn between Trek Armor and Wet Okole, and opinions seemed to mixed from what I have read on the forum.

Please chime-in with a vote, and any comments (good or bad).

Thanks in advance!

I am guessing that most of you guys are not using seat covers?

I have used both. And I prefer Trek Armor.

The Trek armor ones dont have any odor to them when they get wet. I really like the fit. The best part is they dont seem to move around when you move.

I want to get the Trek Armors... Heard nothing but great reviews. But, I'm hopefully waiting for side-airbag compatible ones.

That is what I was waiting on too but I do not think that is going to happen anytime soon due to liability issues. I was thinking about getting them anyways and installing a velcro flap at the side air bag location.

I did not even think of the Side Air Bag compatibility issue! I really am leaning toward the Trek Armor, but this issue changes everything.

I had the Wet Okole seat covers on my truck and while they are a great product they do not breathe well. Anytime in the summer I'd step out of my truck with a sweaty back and wet t-shirt. I'm only 130 lbs and am not a heavy sweater too (if that helps).

AEV has a nice set of Codura covers, my luggage is made of this stuff and it still looks new after 4 years and almost 200,000 air miles.
