Leather seats

Just got a new '06 Lariat screw a couple of weeks ago. Has only 850 miles and I'm starting to notice some slight staining from my blue jeans on the leather driver seat. Can anyone suggest a cleaner which will remove it? Any suggestions as to how to prevent it, short of seat covers or khakis?
Thanks.

I have tan leather in my Lariat and my Mustang, and I never knew blue jeans transfered so much color until I got these vehicles. When I bought the stang the dealer threw in some motorcraft leather cleaner that has worked well. But as I have heard many times on this site, Meguires put out a very good cleaner and conditioner for leather that I will try next.

Thanks smokestone52. I just tried the Lexol PH and I think it did the job. I squirted it on to a clean rag and scrubbed the seat over and over. It seems to have removed the stains. They actually look brand new.

I'm thinking about getting a seat cover, just for when I go fishing and hunting, and I tend to soil the seats.

Yeh, I have thought of seat covers also. I am planning on keeping this truck for a long time, and it probably would be good for longevity. I hate covering up that nice looking leather though. Maybe some nice plush sheepskins would look good though. Probably be nice to sit in also. But I also use my truck for fishing, hunting and driving on dirt a lot. Then I would hate to get the sheepskins dirty.

I guess that is the price we pay for getting such nice trucks.
