IMO, wet okole and that neoprene are great for swamp crotch. Never fun...
Get something that isn't neoprene, and will consequently hold up better, fit and look better as well. Custom High Quality Truck and SUV Seat Covers | Marathon Seat Covers I have these and have had these. Ridiculous fit and finish and really bomb proof and easy on wallet.
Also, for the roller try: ESCAPE GEAR contact @Equipt

I'll second the notion posted above. I had Wet Okoles on one of my trucks a number of years ago. I live in South Florida and they were so uncomfortable and hot. I like the heat in general but I will never put a set of them on anything I ever own. Even if they're free, it ain't happening.

The marathon's look great but none of their colors seem close to the Ivory..
They'll send you samples if you ask. They are very high quality. Can snap a pic or two if need be. You would not be disappointed, nor would your wallet.

Wet Okole covers fit and look great! The tan is lighter than factory, but does match the headliner material pretty well.
I notice my back gets a little warmer than with the factory leather, but I have not experienced the swamp ass/crotch that some folks have reported. Well, it is about the same as leather. My wife no longer complains about scorching hot leather burning her legs either, which is a huge win for me. I love that the seats are warmer in the winter. The seat heater still works on high but not quite as intense as the straight leather. The covers still have a slight neoprene smell nearly one year later.
I really wanted a cloth like seat cover that would fit tight against the seat and ordered fabric samples from several places. Wet Okole was the only one who seemed to check all of my boxes. I'd buy them again if no new covers have been released that fit this snug.

Wet Okole in mine as well, works like charm for me as well, I stay in NoVA region so don't see that florida/phx hot days to feel uncomfortable. so depending on your location it might work
I just made a ten hour road trip on wet okole seat covers and it felt fine.
Could you post photos of the Escape Gear covers?
I hear Ruff Tuff seat covers are good. They have a variety of options.
I will say I didn’t get the cargo nets on my wet okoles and I totally regret it. I’m going to have to get something to strap over for trips.
Could you please?
Was installation difficult on the Ruff Stuff covers? Do yo have to take the seats out to install?
They slip on/off in minutes. Took me about 20-30 minutes to install them the first time without instructions (bought them used).
