For my it’s simple. I’m a slob and the leather is easier to clean with no stains. I also put a seat cover over my seat to insure I don’t mess up the leather.Leather seat lovers....I'm not in your camp but I completely respect your decision to get and otherwise love them.
What was it about them that your found appeal with? Is it that they feel softer, look nicer, are snazzier, etc.? I'm not hear to judge you for getting things simply because/if you think they look nice--if that was your reason beyond all else.
For me, if both seats were offered with no price differential...and maybe this is born if ignorance never knowing from better, I'd opt for the cloth--which I did with mine (especially in light of the price difference.) I think they're better in extremes of temperature.
Sure, in a more classical luxury sedan or SUV where climate control is always on, and there's apt to be some remote engine start, I suspect these temperature differences are not an issue, and leather seats are sort of "part in parcel" with the ownership experience--not that FCA hasn't taken major steps to make our interior comfort far more feature rich on the JL than the JK.
Thanks.
Aside from the initial contact with a seat that's been exposed to direct sunlight, I completely agree with this. In general the leather is cooler while driving. That initial contact though, it can be pretty hot. Hence the towel while I'm parked, though I'll soon have a Sunrider for hardtop so I won't need the towel anymore...... And contrary to most other people, I think it is cooler in the summer....
Random tip for you. Use a rubber squeegee to "brush" the cloth seats with, and the fur comes right off....The dogs didn't even get into that cloth interior but the fur transferred from his clothing in a heartbeat, lol! And it's so hard to get it all vacuumed out.
Sounds like another use for those rubber brooms they make.Aside from the initial contact with a seat that's been exposed to direct sunlight, I completely agree with this.

Sounds crazy but works great. I don't remember how/when I learned this but I've been doing it on the cloth seats in my work car for years.
And farts. You ever sit down on a cloth seat and smell old shit? It's disgusting.Thats easy to answer!
6: Every time i sit in a cloth seat, i imagine how many before me have sat and sweat in it and how i am absorbing it all...

LOL. I've never experienced that, but nobody who has been in your Jeep is allowed to ride in mine. Ya'll are nasty.And farts. You ever sit down on a cloth seat and smell old shit? It's disgusting.
There's been a few posts with people who have leather seats caught out in the rain with the top off. Heated seat still works and everything. Obviously regular exposure to water isn't good for leather, but an occasional occurrence seems to be safe.How will the leather seats hold up in rain? Will the non-leather part in between the bottom and back seat sections absorb water?
Hey, not my Jeep. I used to sell impounded cars, really old shitty onesLOL. I've never experienced that, but nobody who has been in your Jeep is allowed to ride in mine. Ya'll are nasty.
