Get leather seats because the cloth ones are junk. I will be getting Katzkin's when it gets bad enough and I can't take it anymore.

I like the cloth ones; a lot of people say the factory leather is junk.I just didn't want leather when it gets up to 120 degrees outside; no way would I want to get in that seat after baking in the sun all day. The factory cloth material is great other than its inexplicable attraction to lint and hair.

The factory leather is no worse than the leather in my 06 or my moms old 02 tahoe. Ive got a kid/dog/wife so I need to be able to clean up after them easily. I have dark tint and I use the reflective windshield screens. It still gets hot but my seats arent scalding and Ill deal with it to not have to worry about stains.

Yeah, I can understand that. I've got dogs but no kids and black cloth, and I figured that the claws would make a mess of the leather so I went with cloth for that aspect as well as the heat. I didn't think about the stains when I got my truck, but oh well. Worst case scenario I'll swap down the road if I change my mind or my interior goes to ****.
