I have cloth seats in my Ext Cab Colorado and am looking for advice on Seat Covers. I'm looking for covers that fit well and do not look like the typical baggy fit type. Thanks:grin2:

I just installed CoverKing's Poly Cotton covers. Very pleased with the ease of the install and the snug fit. Fabric feels like a cross between a cordura and carhartt fabrics, though a better feel than either.

Wet Okole, going on two years. Neoprene with a nylon cover, wet suit material. They stain easily.

Very comfortable, they were kinda expensive though.

Gt seat covers in denver colorado
This is my first vehicle in a long time that has "leather" seats, and this is my first truck with heated seats. I'm not really big into leather seats because, well, with modern seats, most of the seat isn't leather, and that means nasty wear on things like side bolsters where cheap vinyl and clear-coated materials break down with ease. We'll see how these hold up...my expectations aren't high...but I've resolved that if they start looking awful, I'll have a shop re-upholster them with heavy duty materials.
In past trucks and in my Jeep, I've always gone with neoprene seat covers. Tight fit, uniform look, good smell (to me), and pleasing texture. And they're impervious to liquids, and clean up easy if they get mud or anything else on them. I'd get a set for my new Colorado except that it has heated seats....which I absolutely love...and I'm not certain the heating element is designed to also heat through a layer of neoprene.

I've had the Neoprene on my Jeeps also and loved them as well. I spoke to my dealer about the Neoprene over the Leather and he said no issue BUT I most likely will not feel the heated seat.
My Canyon is a 2016 and it now has 15k on it and the seats are wearing absolutely wonderfully. I guess I will leave it as is and find something else to spend the $150 - $200 on in its place.
Who knows if Jeep finally does what they have been talking about for years which is put a Diesel in the Wrangler my Canyon will be going bye bye.

I recently pulled the trigger on some Caltrend Duraplus seat covers based on some of the images in this thread. Between the dog and the dirt we collect on camping trips/trail rides I was a bit concerned how the stock seats would look as time wore on.
Fit is actually really good. You can tell it's a seat cover (especially the front headrests due to their odd shape on the bottom) but if you're not looking closely you wouldn't notice. The fabric lays flat and tight to the seat. They're made of Cordura nylon and as the name would imply they should hold up to just about anything we can throw at them. Really simple to install, didn't take long at all.
I will note that the covers for the bottom of the front seats definitely have a left and a right side; the fabric is cut unevenly to fit around the seat controls. I saw someone on here a while ago that had to run the strap around the plastic seat trim - that's because the cover was on the wrong side (it's a problem on the manual passenger seat. You won't have issues on the driver's side).
Here are some quick pics:

I'll PM you a quote.
I didn't want to spend a ton of $ on seat covers. I really like the kryptek but $600 is crazy.
So after looking around I found a great deal at fleetfarm.com. Their krpytek raid pattern and look great. They fit loose. If you like a real tight fit, look elsewhere.
The rear seat is made for a full size so I has to cut off a foot in the middle and sew it back together. I do not recommend the rear seat unless you're willing to trim and stitch
70 bucks for the 2 front seat covers is excellent.

Im running behind ordering seat covers for the truck. Its a deepwood metallic Zr2...so the almost black interior with the tan headliner. I was just about settled on the caltrend Duraplus...but then thought about how many times we have to take out our cheap seat cover on the suburban to wash it and clean it due to the toddler.
The Caltrend looks like a install and forget it type cover as its super form fitting. Which then brings me back to the covercraft carhart ones. They are baggier which aids in removal and cleaning but look not as nice.
The last two bits of info, one important to above, one about aesthetics:
1) Im a bit disabled now, so I have to slide out of the seat, so I am worried about just destroying the bolster stitching on the seat cover, (hence the carhart over their polycotten, it has more stitching in the seams)
2)color: In my mind its a deepwood trcuk just screams for the tan covers...but then I look inside and so much is dark gray/black.... The carhart grey is so light, so that would leave the Tan. I guess.... The Caltrends the dark color looks about right, but you can order the centers a different color, Dark gray or tan for that?
Im starting to lean back to the tan carharts for ease to remove and clean....
Im off to see if I can find a pic on the www of a zr2 with tn covers.

Here's a few more of the kryptek raid pattern. Can't get all the pictures to correct angle but you get the idea. The steering wheel cover is similar to nomad pattern. I paid $150 for front/ back covers and steering wheel. These are not a skin tight fit but they do there job of protecting the seats
