The Best Heavy Duty Seat Covers for Trucks & Suvs

It was time for a new truck, so I went and bought myself a brand new F-250 in 2019, it only made sense. I am a construction site’s crew chief and I like to pick up my guys to make sure they all make it on time to the work site. Those guys get in and out of my truck all day, dirty and with no care at all for my seats. I got tired of seeing the damage to my seats. Whether it was holes, dirt or stains, all of the seats in my truck were suffering, so I started to look for the best truck seat covers in 2019. That is what lead me to Saddleman.

I spoke with a customer service agent at Saddleman and they lead to me some heavy duty seat cover materials. I chose the Saddle Blanket seat covers in black. Those heavy duty seat covers would really protect my truck and as a bonus it reminded me of those old westerns I used to watch with my dad as a kid, where the hero would jump on top of their horse and ride off into the sunset. Now I too can jump into my “saddle” and ride off into the sunset, all without worrying about my knucklehead crewmates ruining my brand new seats!

It reminds me of the time I took my buddies down to our local steakhouse as a treat, I’m not a big drinker, but they are, so I offered to be a designated driver. Now that I had covers in my seats, I was not going to be stingy with the rides, knowing that they wouldn’t be able to ruin my seats through those heavy duty seat covers. I packed the back row of my truck like a clown car, all smooshed in and nowhere to go. Normally when they are all in there like that I feel like the leather on my seats is just about to tear at all times. With all the sliding in and out and hopping around that goes on back there, I am always worrying about the seats tearing. That is a worry of the past when I got my Saddle Blanket seat covers and installed them on my seats not only does that back bench look cooler than ever it, also was protected against my ever so destructive friends. It was like that when we all left the steak house, our one friend Tim, as clueless as always, jumped right into my truck; head first, almost like he was diving into a pool. He slid across the interior of my bench, but with those heavy duty seat covers installed there was no damage, no yelling (from me) and a continued good time by all. I dropped them off, what was almost a party bus by the time we got to our first stop, music blaring buddies whooping and hollering, just a good time. One by one, I dropped my friends off until it was just me in the truck. I took a scan at the back and saw a few stains on the seat covers, so I went back there and gave it a quick clean with some fabric cleaner (I’m OCD that way) and gave it a wipe down. As I mentioned my friends are animals and they definitely leave a mess everywhere they go.

I got the wife a new truck as well and she was jealous of my seat covers. So we called Saddleman again and spoke with a new customer service agent. We spoke about heavy duty seat covers again, but after describing my wife’s needs in her truck we decided to go for the Ballistic seat covers, she got a nice two toned black and charcoal which really popped with the interior of her truck. Not only where the tough her seat covers are also waterproof! Now she and the kids come back from the pool without any fuss whatsoever, they get in a bit damp and she just wipes down the seats with her towel before heading in and stopping for the day. These heavy duty seat covers saved us from a lot of cranky moods and crying, not to mention a high reupholstering bill on my truck, thanks Saddleman!
