Default Wet Okole Seat Covers

Does anybody have these and how do they like them? I just placed an order because they covered the entire seat which is something I liked about them over the other ones.

I just ordered a set of them. It takes about 3 to 4 weeks to get them. Once I get them I will let you know how they are. From what I read they are awesome, except for th rice. But you get what you pay for

I've had them for about 3 years, I'm disappointed in how they held up. I'm in Arizona and the suns brutal but they faded fast, and they wore faster than I expected. I'll be getting cordura ones this summer.

Hopefully they will last longer since I don't live in a desert. I'll have to say 3 to 4 weeks is a long time to wait. I hope I'm not disappointed by the time they get here.

Dont get me wrong, they look great and are very comfortable.

my okole seat covers faded and i live in maryland. they are started to stretch at the seems and they tear fairly easily (dogs nails). they are great when the top is down because you dont burn your a$$ off and they dry really easily

The bottoms of mine wore out after only a year. Getting in and sliding out wore them down in spots. For the price I was very disappointed, I also hated how the arm rest cover fit it looked like crap. They are also awful if you have pets, the hair is hard to get off. I had them in a a F -150 by the way. I will not and did not buy them for my Jeep.

I had these in my Cherokee for all 9 years I owned and they held up great with the exception of a few food stains that stayed. The fronts did fade a bit compared to the rear but if my JK wasn't a lease I'd buy another set for it.
