Are Neoprene seat covers hot?

[pnut]

Compared to leather. I have leather seats, and they are very hot constantly.

Would like to know since neoprene is basically fabric covered leather, is it equally hot/sweaty/ not breathable? Not on the surface of course, but making you sweat.

It isn't. Neoprene consists of synthetic rubber.

I'm using a set of neoprene covers until I get my PRPs. I've had them for just over a year. I don't find them to be hot at all. I don't have any issue with them making me sweat when it's hot out. Also, in the winter, my heated seats seats worked just fine.

mine just get warm but that's what I get for having a black car and black seat covers I guess

I put a pair of black Neoprene Rough Country seat covers over my OEM stock tan...mostly to keep them clean. They get warm, but not hot.....they fit very well and almost looks like a stock Neoprene seat. I plan at some point to switch out for leather Katzkin...but extremely happy in the short term.

I'm liking the black instead of tan, so rethinking the color of Katzkin I may get.

Not hot, but a wee bit sweaty on really hot summer days in my opinion, certainly not as bad as leather seats I have had in the past. Keep in mind I live where its over 100F for over 100 days a year.

I had a set of neoprene diver down covers on my 18 and they were hot as hell. I won’t be getting them for my 21. It’s too hot here in GA during the summer.

My bad, I meant to say fabric covered rubber, my typing and mind were not aligned
