Neoprene is one of the most popular seat cover fabrics because they are a popular lifestyle fabric. Popularized by the Southern California surf culture, the Neoprene fabric was originally the only option for waterproof materials. Since then, it has developed as one of the most popular choices for waterproof seat covers over the last 50 years. It is versatile, durable, and comfortable, while still looking good in just about every type of vehicle. Our Neoprene car seat covers are the ideal for families with kids that are constantly making messes, because it’s easy to clean large spills. Neoprene truck seat covers work great on trucks that need protection, even if you aren’t on a work site. But no matter what vehicle you drive, you’ll get a high-quality cover that’s built to take on all of life’s messes.
At Northwest Seat Covers, we offer two different Neoprene fabrics you can choose from: NeoSupreme and the New Neo-Ultra. These two fabrics represent the evolution of the Neoprene seat cover, each providing their own unique features and protection.
Neo-Ultra™ is the latest step in the evolution of Neoprene materials. Designed by the Northwest Seat Covers team, we set out to create a fabric that included all of the benefits of the Neoprene fabric, but without some negative aspects from previous generations. We wanted to create a waterproof seat cover that felt exactly like the original Neoprene, but a healthier version. We eliminated the toxic rubber by using higher-quality materials that wouldn’t emit harmful toxins into your vehicle. The result was the Neo-Ultra fabric that is completely waterproof, non-toxic, has higher abrasion resistance with a special anti-snag surface, all while providing the original comfort of Neoprene. They work great in cars, but are also durable enough for SUVs and even tough enough for some medium duty work trucks.
NeoSupreme is the second step in the evolution of Neoprene, and was developed as a more cost-effective version of the original Neoprene seat cover. NeoSupreme improved as an ultra-comfortable option, but does not offer the same level of water-resistance, due to the elimination of CR or SBR rubber. However, NeoSupreme is still incredibly durable, and if a cushy look is what you’re looking for, then NeoSupreme seat covers are a good economical option.
Our Neoprene series is custom-made for your specific make and model of car, truck, or SUV, so you will always have a seat cover that fits like a glove. Our products won’t bunch up when you get in and out of your vehicle, are easy to install, and they’ll always fit like the originals.
All of our fabrics undergo the Wyzenbeek test, also known as the double rub test. This durability test measures how a fabric holds up to constant wear and tear. Our covers can withstand 250,000 double rubs, meaning that the Neoprene material will hold up for years, no matter how many times you get in and out of your vehicle.
We included a Grade 3.5 UV light protective coating in all of our seat covers. This protects the Neoprene material for up to 200 hours of exposed UV rays before it starts to fade. You won’t have to worry about your seat covers fading right away, because they’re built to last the life of your vehicle.
All of our fabrics are put through rigorous safety testing to ensure that you are protected in your vehicle. The Neoprene material is lined in flame retardant (FR coating) and is side airbag compatible, no matter what kind of car you drive. They are all custom-made to pass either the FMVSS302 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard) or CPAI 84 Sections 5 and 6.
Most of our fabrics offer high water repellency or are completely waterproof, but it is especially important to make this distinction on the Neoprene series. The Neo-Ultra was built to get the Neoprene back to full waterproof status, just as the Neoprene was originally designed.
Technology has really changed what we can do with fabrics. Our fabrics really shine in HD because of the quality of the image when using heat transfer paper and the fact that we use durable 600 denier polyester fabrics. All of our Neoprene seat covers come in a variety of color styles in both single colors and multiple colors, so you’ll be able to find the color perfect for your vehicle.

I chose the cool sport fabric because they looked great and allow my ventilated seat to work. Thanks for the layer of protection and keeping our seats comfy in the Florida heat.
Was gonna get the vinyl covers but it gets too cold up here. So I went with the Cordura progard covers and these look and feel really good - top quality.
Have a new 2023 F150 crew cab and Buster, our big lab, loves jumping up on the rear seats, so we got a set of ballistic covers. They were a bit tight to install, but they look good installed.
I got a set of the Pro-Gard seat covers for my Silverado HD dually. Have to admit, not disappointed in the least. Easy install and fit is great - no more worrying about coffee spills!
