I also have Marathon covers. I'm also a duck hunter and jump in with my waders on all season long. I got several add ons (two tone: Max-4/black, map pockets, and gun loops) shown in the pictures below. The pictures were taken after my line-x job was done so not the best shots of the seats but you'll get the idea.

I also have the Marathon seat covers they are great. when they get dirty (a bird shit on mine when doors were off 2x)
it wiped right off. I have washed them many times and held up great I liked them so much I took them from my 08 and put them in my 13 the fit is not right but they work till I can afford a new set
and I love all the pockets u can add. I live in Fl and have not noticed any sun fadding (seat covers are 4yrs old and going strong)

My Wet Okole covers are flawless and have held up to a couple of years abuse still looking new too.

They make a camo pattern too

does any one know if the trek armor will fit on seats with the internal airbags? I see on their site that they can gaurantee the function of the sirbag in the case of deployment but i just want to know if it will physically fit on the seats. I will take responsibility for the function of the airbag.

I can't speak to fit, but they are working on an airbag compatible version. I heard hopefully by end of January.

Default Trek Armor

I have run a ton of seat covers over the years. Not even sure what color my original seats are?! I once took a set to the dealer and covered the seats before pulling out of the parking lot.

I had issues with the neoprenes. I am a big guy and it's a lifted jeep. So started to see some real wear and tearing where I slid off the seat getting out of the jeep. I also only went black. The other colors fade big-time. I remember my daughter asking some guy where he got the pink seat covers... they were red, but faded. Bet the guy ordered new set that night!

With all that said... I came to this forum wanting to know the very best and someone mentioned Trek Armor. I figured what the heck. Guess they fall into the nylon side of what you are asking. They are absolutely bomb proof. Like shockingly bombproof. They still look brand new, no fading. Very heavy duty. Molle straps nice touch and don't go to waste. Bitch to put on... like a board.

So, thumbs up for no neoprene. And if this helps someone else take a peek at Trek Armor... feel like I have paid it forward!

If you just want to cover your seats for duck season, get some cheap ass covers that go on and off easy. If you are going to keep them on all the time and want them to look good, get the Trek Armor.
I've had mine on for over a year, and they still look new.

This for sure. If you like the leather but only want something for duck season there is probably no need to spend for something like Trek Armor. That said, I love my Trek Armor and do not regret anything about getting them.

I have researched this on here for a while and the Coverking ballistic got a LOT of votes... and since you are using them for duck season they are supposedly water proof if that helps. I just went on to order a set and they do not make them for a 2014 yet, I think the latest they went was 2012 so you should be safe. I ended up ordering the Coverking neoprene... they will do for now hopefully they wear ok and don't turn "pink" right away!!
