anyone have leather/any aftermarket seat covers for their new truck??

has anyone found a good leather/any seat cover that is a great product? id like to install something new inside my single cab, and would love factory leather, but will probably have to settle for a cheaper alternative, any suggestions?? i want to find something that fits snugg and isnt loose or bunched up in areas of the seats.... oh yeah, ive got 40/20/40 with jumpseat.

I just ordered Katzkin black and tan leather for my 2010 F150 and i had katzkin installed in my 2006. its looks great and replaces the cloth on your seats now. it is not a slip on but full replacement. cost me around 500 and i put them on myself. took 2 days to install but looked great

You can find them on Ebay, i ordered them through my upholstery shop here in town and paid 650 installed 500 for the covers and 150 labor. Try EBay if not try your local shop

Katzin is great leather- used it in my 02 Ranger & is still great looking & feeling after
121000 miles. At least as good as Lariat leather- maybe not up to King Ranch, but probably equal to Platnium.

I wish i could find some affordable King Ranch leather seats. But the price for new and even used KR leather is outrageous!

Griff- in your 2010, do you have flow through console or the 40/20/40 jump seat.... im curious how well the leather turns out on the jump seat and top of console for the fold down on the jump seat. i found some seats on ebay (non katzkin) and the console looked horrible in their sample pictures. With a company like Katzkin i expect it would look great but def wanna make sure before i buy some.

The Katzkin rawlings edition is really close to the KR color. Plus it's super soft I would love to have some of those

yeah me too but, $900-1300ish is a lil rich for my pockets. Plus, im from Nocona, Texas, i dont know if you've ever heard of Nokona athletic goods, but they are probably the best baseball gloves in the world, and still made exclusivly in the USA, so i cant say that i could support rawlings.... they are nice seats though.

I had the dealer put in black Katzkin (flow through center console). They've got to be the best seats I've ever had in a truck. It was about $1800 out the door, and given the choice I would have definitely done it again. Very easy to clean, looks great, and after 15k miles, still look awesome with no signs of wear (other than the embossing is not as noticeable as it was when I got it)
