Seat covers

I just got a 2014 F250 Lariat with heated and cooled leather seats. I want try to keep the leather in good shape so I'm looking at seat covers. Does anyone have experience with neoprene seat covers and will they transfer the hot and cold fairly well? I'll take suggestions on other types of covers.

Thanks in advance.

Neoprene should be good to go. Just don't believe the waterproof bit. Neoprene is waterproof, but water passes right through it and ruins your leather.

Not sure on the cooling stuff, I don't have it. Neo seats are warm in the summer, you won't need you heater in the winter.

Yes, this. People often confuse waterproof with hydrophobic.

Enjoy the leather and don't cover it. Use a good leather conditioner to keep it soft and strong. I use poor boys leather conditioner and use it 3 times a year or so. The leather will outlive the truck this way

I have wet okle seat covers in my 04, 100% waterproof and UV coating makes the camo look brand new still. And yes 100% waterproof, eight years of waterfowl hunting have confirmed that, my tan fabric seats look brand new still!

Marathon seat covers. Not cheap but they are 100% waterproof, fit very well and don't inhibit the warm or cool function of your seats. I've had them on my '12 F250 for 2 years now and I had a set on my 150 for 5 years.
