I have Red Corbeau’s and they can be a bit much to keep clean…

I believe corbeau is making some of their seats in suede now. Definitely not the best quality, but in your price range.

edit: I think its leather, not suede. my bad.

Suede blah blah blah… leather is very easy to clean, and a lot more resilient to any staining.

i certainly do. i just never got around to doing it.

if you want the poop, its yours. its simple, just time consuming. you need the strip the old color out of the seats and restain/die the leather.
