They are not completely water proof, but do dry quickly and are not sticky.

Check out marathonseatcovers.com They make them specifically for the Jk and come in Codura fabric. Codura is a type of cotton and is completely waterproof, and not as hot as neoprene either. I will pacing my order next week after getting paid for the MARPAT Desert style. Good Luck bro.

I had the neo (albeit a cheap set) very hot, the marathons are much nicer in the Texas heat

i had the wet okole's on my tj. they faded fast in the sun and since they dont breathe much they make you sweat alot. they are good for those who will be around a lot of mud or water--i'm not, so i wont be getting them again.
