Never really got my head around the sheet of paper on the floor thing. Usually go vehicle shopping when it's persisting down, as it's a bit of a write off day, so inevitably it just sticks to yer feet like sh!t to a blanket 🥴

I like the leather seats in my car. However, I can't see the point in a tractor. I can remember tractors with plastic seat coverings, one used to slip all over, velour is so much more 'grippy'

Would NEVER have leather seats in a tractor. Cold in winter & hot in summer

Heavy cotton canvas seat covers are very popular here, for work utes, tractors, headers, pickers, etc , even ag bikes & quads . . .

most manufacturers will even provide their locally sourced “branded” canvas covers, alongside the world wide fabric / neoprene etc ones in their catalogues.

PS - I hate velour or other synthetic fabric covers as well. In our environment, a “natural” material is much better

PPS - I couldn’t care less what colour it is. What it’s made from is far more important

View attachment 1046838

so, are they really leather, some god awful vinyl material ( 1970’s childhood, hot Australian summers, cars without AC & vinyl seats not a good combination 🤣 Back then, everyone had “terry towelling” fabric seat covers 👍 ), or just so it is guaranteed to further raise the ire of TFF members, some faux synthetic “leather” ?
