    I wanted Cordura covers, and bought some Coverking ballistics for my rear row (claim to be whatever grade ballistic nylon cordura). The "ballistic nylon" they are made of is way too slick.

    The CalTrend NeoSupreme was definitely less waterproof than the Wet Okoles but still pretty good. I really liked the sleaker appearance of their side-airbag flap and the Map pocket being higher up was better in my opinion.

    Now I have Wet Okoles and still formulating my opinion.

    At the moment I feel the CalTrends actually mounted to the seat better...the wet okoles require you to tuck the bottom flap of the seat into itself and it leaves the plastic trim pieces of the seat exposed along with the screws the go in each...to me not really the sleakest look if you notice it. Caltrends just had straps on either end of the seat back cover which both attached under the seat leaving a better look.

    What I will say is the wet okole padding is fantastic...way more plush and comfortable.

    Installed Cal Trend ballistic nylon covers in my 2015 w/ sport seats. Tougher than nails, dog proof, kid proof, French fry proof....matches interior color well, easy to install and comfortable. Wet suit seat covers seem to be the material of choice on this forum, but my experience with neoprene is it doesn't stand up to real abuse the way cordura nylon does. Style over substance???

    It wasn't to bad. Defiantly easier to remove the seats than to hassle with running the buckles and straps under there. It didn't mention it in the instructions, but I ended up unhooking the little rear cape that is on the bottom rear and just lifting it upwards. This allows you to have a tighter fit on the lumber area.

    Other than that pretty self explanatory. Here's a pic them installed in the truck.

    I've got the Carhartt seat covers for my front seats and the back. They might not fit as well as other brands but I wear a Carhartt coat during the colder months and really like the durability. Here is a picture of how they look on my back seats. I got mine from AutoAnything.
