Seat Covers---Need Recommendations, Please

[RajTaj]

My wife has a 2019 2-Dr. JL Sport daily driver, (no offroading), with cloth seats and she would like cloth seat covers to keep the originals in good condition. I've looked online at some from Quadratec, Seat Covers Unlimited, & Extreme Terrain but have not found any that look like they are a quality product and with a nice fit / not sloppy or loose looking. Maybe I'm just missing them.

The neoprene and leather (or pseudo-leather) products seem to have nice looking fits, but we live in the desert so these are not options, way too hot. (I have a Grand Cherokee with black leather and it roasts your hiney 6 months a year out here and she hates it.)

Any recommendations for where to find really nice quality cloth seat covers? (Did the usual Google thing but really didn't find any good looking options.)

Many thanks in advance for any input; I appreciate it.

Try looking here and see what you think. They had rave reviews in my JK days.

your info request comes up quite a bit. there are a small handful of good options and many poor options. i have a 2019 as well and my bartact seat covers look brand new. very durable and clean up easy. i wouldn’t have a jeep without them. that being said, they’re not for everyone. primary drawback is the price unfortunately. in my mind, worth it. other drawback some might say is that they take a little bit of time to put on. i didn’t think it was that bad and had watched a couple of videos on youtube. the trade off of course is that they’re tight and this don’t have that baggy look. good luck with whatever you choose.

Bartact is the forum favorite, but they're a bit pricey.

I would recommend that you reconsider neoprene, personally. I live in Texas, so I'm very familiar with the heat. The truth is, you're not going to avoid getting swampy when it's 100+℉, even if your seats are made of ice.

So, for me, neoprene is the best solution (and what I've had for the past two summers). I bought the Diver Down set from Quadratec - they're about $200 for a 4dr set, and fully complete, with the exception of the console/arm rest. For some reason they don't include that, but you can get one for $20 off Amazon.

Why these are awesome:
- They don't get as hot as leather, and really not as hot to the touch as many people think. I've never gotten burned from them
- They're literally designed to get wet. Not with water - with sweat. You will absolutely sweat in your Jeep, so in my mind, you want something that can properly handle that sweat. Which neoprene can do with ease.
- Easy to wash. At the end of the season, I buy a couple of bottles of wetsuit cleaner and run them through a heavy rinse cycle in the washing machine (I have a washer with no agitator, which is important. You can also do it in a bathtub if necessary). Then hang them dry in the garage for ~24hrs.
- They protect your actual seats. In my case, leather. I don't want the UV fade, or bird poop, or wet swimsuits, etc.
- They're cost-effective. For $200, I've used mine for two full Texas summers, and they're likely to last the third next year.

I would say Bartact are the best, but they are expensive. I just scored some gently used ones for $200 locally. I already had the rear in black, but wanted the fronts. I picked them up because they are graphite and black and my Jeep is Sting Gray. Not a perfect match, but I really like the molle and front and rear zippered pockets on them.

I have and like Covercraft Carhartt SeatSaver Custom Seat Covers. Very sturdy. Been on a Purple cushion binge lately too. On hot days a cheap seat pad that maximizes airflow is a godsend. Yup, all three. Probably looks ridiculous, but damn comfortable.

Bartact if you have the $$$ had them JK & now JL awesome covers..

Not sure if anyone has mentioned them yet, but BARTACT is the only correct answer.

We've been satisfied with our Rough Country on the 2020 JLU Sahara.

I had these CoverKing seat covers in the last two trucks I owned prior to getting my Jeep. Don‘t be put off by the use of the word velour in the description, they are very durable. They fit well and look like the cloth seats in a Honda or Toyota. They will send you sample swatches of any of their materials. I will put Bartact in my Jeep, but I think these CoverKing covers may be better for what you are wanting.

I have the Carhartt grey covers made by covercraft (I think they have other material options) over my leather seats and like them alot. They are the "perfect fit" covers and are less sloppy than I thought they would be. I'll try to get some photos of them tonight.

I'm on my second set of Bartacts. If you want good look and quality, but are not recovering with leather, they cannot be beat.

I went with PRP seat covers, which are expensive but amazing.

Interestingly, before the refresh there was no grey interior option, only black or tan. Flat looking cloth or leather. I posted on many seat cover threads how beautiful my grey tweed seats with yellow stitching are, and received an incredible number of positive reactions.

Then with the refresh, Sahara's now come standard with heathered grey cloth with yellow stitching.

@RajTaj
Bartact or PRP if you want to go all in. If not, and you're willing to give neoprene a fair chance, I can recommend the Diver Down brand as worth one's consideration.

Many, many thanks to all of you that replied; your feedback and input is greatly appreciated! New to the Jeep world and had never heard of Bartact or PRP, and had written off neoprene until some of you advised giving it a consideration, which we will now do. One of these should work perfectly. Really appreciate your time in replying!
