Cabela's Cordura Seat Cover Experience?

Anyone have any experience with the Cabela's cordura seat covers? 129.99 doesn't seem so bad for such a fabric that is custom fit to vehicle specific models. The only picture I could find is supplied on the Cabela's site.

Cordura.

I've had three sets of Cordura material covers on three vehicles supplied by: www.marathonseatcovers.com. If it's the same grade,they'll wear forever. When I sold my '98.5 CTD the buyer didn't even know seat covers were on it. They were seven years old. I've had superb service from this small company in Montana. Just wish I'd ordered camo this last time.

those seat covers dont even look like they fit well in the stock photo. I wouldn't bother.. I have the 20$ cabellas trail gear seat covers with land rover logos sowed on and they are great.

Thanks for the tip on these guys! I'm ordering samples tomorrow.

If your not afraid to pay for quality I recommend http://www.wetokole.com

Waterproof covers that are model / year specific + you can have them put seat back pockets, extra lumbar support or a carbon fiber seat heater into the cover itself.

If you have airbags in the side of your front seats (look for the SRS oval on the side of the seat back), beware of cheap covers as they will cause problems if the airbags go off . . . best not to cover or constrain an airbag, better seat covers have a flap that will open to allow the airbag to deploy

I bought a Camo set here.. www.seatcovers.net

They have held up extremely well for me. I did have issues with proper fit till i sent them a junk seat.. now they have the proper template and fit was fantastic... no movement in them whatsoever.

I've had wet okole's in the past, definitely a quality product. They certainly don't breathe all that well, being waterproof, and often left your back quite damp.

Cordura will probably have the same effect, just looking to try something different.
