So you are looking for some Sheepskin Seat Covers for your new or used vehicle. You already know that using seat covers will do many positive things for your specific vehicle. Here is a list of just a few positive things you can count on. Seat sheepskin covers will do the following for your vehicle.
- Lengthens the life of your seats
- Helps your vehicle keep its value when its comes time to sell or trade in.
- Gives you piece of mind when it comes to something getting spilled on your seats.
When you start looking at Sheepskin leather for your new seat covers, you will most likely run into some terms that will more than likely confuse you more than anything. Here are some of these terms and what they mean. Remember these definitions are used a little different depending on the dealer, but overall these will be correct.
1. Ready Made - These covers are pre made covers that will fit a lot of makes and models of cars. These do not need to be mixed up with the covers sold in the department stores. Ready made sheepskin covers sold through most dealers are actually made to fit the way they are supposed to.
2. Tailor Made - Tailor Made seat covers are especially made to the exact dimensions of your vehicle. Vehicles that have seat belts made into the seats will have to have tailor made seat covers. Many cars have seats that have odd dimensions and shapes that no ready or pre made covers will fit. SO they have to be tailor made.
3. Double Cap - Double cap sheepskin covers are all sheepskin. This means they have sheepskin on the front, bottom, sides as well as the back of the seats. These are the most expensive and the hardest to install because they do not stretch a whole lot.
4. All Sheepskin - These are the exact same thing as a Double Cap. Its just a more simple term and makes more sense to someone that doesn't know anything about sheepskin covers.
5. Super Fit - Super Fit covers basically have Sheepskin on the front & bottom of the seat where your butt and back rest. They usually have a stretchable acrylic material that has a matching fleece that normally matches the color of the sheepskin very closely on the sides and back of the seat. These are easier to install because of the stretchiness of the acrylic.
6. Deluxe Super Fit - These are super fit covers that are made with the best quality sheepskin offered. These covers are the most expensive ready made covers because of the quality of sheepskin used.
7. Mosaic - Mosaic usually means a pattern of different colors, but most of the time with Sheepskin it just means the seats are made in a pattern of small diamonds or squares. They are normally the same color. Mosaic is actually made up of a lot of small left over pieces instead of one big piece of sheepskin.
8. Mosaic Super fit - These are covers made in a mosaic pattern that has the acrylic on the sides and back of the seats. Mosaic covers are usually cheaper because the pieces used are made up of smaller pieces that can't be used on anything else.
9. Tailor Made Mosaic - These are tailor made covers that are made from the smaller pieces in a diamond or square pattern. Since these are tailor made they are usually all sheepskin or double cap. Sheepskin on front, bottom, back & sides. This is something one company may do differently than another so it is wise to ask if they are all sheepskin or super fit.
10. Standard - Standard usually has a shorter fleece than the other options available. The standard sheepskin is considered a lower quality because of the shorter fleece. My personal opinion is they are of the same quality its just that the fleece is shorter & many people actually prefer the shorter fleece.
Now that you know what these terms mean. It's time to put it all together so you can get the most for your money. Sheepskin is a very durable leather and the fleece has some amazing properties. Sheepskin is warm in the winter and is cool in the summer. What ever decision you make when picking out what kind of sheepskin covers to purchase for your vehicle will not be a bad one. Here is a list of things you need to do before ordering your Sheepskin Seat Covers from any dealer.
- Decide what kind of density of sheepskin fleece you want. Remember Deluxe means best or thickest fleece. Mosaic is the same thickness but made up of smaller pieces. Standard has a shorter fleece than the others. Deluxe is most expensive - Standard is in the middle & Mosaic is usually the cheapest.
- Decide if you want to have all sheepskin or super fit. Do you have to have sheepskin on the sides and back of the seats? It will save you a lot of money if you choose the super fit.
- Find out if you need tailor made covers? Don't let any dealer fool you into getting tailor made covers. Make sure you ask why do you have to have tailor made? If you have integrated seat belts into your seats or built in armrest you will always have to have tailor made. If you have odd shaped seats or really thick seats then you may have to have them tailor made also.
In my opinion if you want the best price go with the Mosaic super fit. Even if they have to tailor make them it will still be affordable. On the plus side the mosaic has a pattern that usually looks really nice & remember the mosaic is made up of the best quality sheepskin. These are my personal favorite for quality and price (mosaics are actually just the left over pieces). If you would like a shorter fleece then definitely go with the standard super fit, If they can fit your vehicle with it.
Most of the time you can't get a bench seat done with the standard, but if it bucket seats then there shouldn't be a problem. Of course if price isn't a option then go with the all sheepskin seats. These are the best of the best. These are good for show cars where this may count towards more points for your show car. Some people just feel better knowing there sheepskin seats are all sheepskin, but I will not tell you they are my first choice. Because I'm cost conscious and like the most for my money.
