I can’t tell you how many seat cover brands I’ve gone through over the years and, frankly, I couldn’t even tell you the brands I’ve used.

I would like to get some seat covers for the entire truck but want them to fit properly and be quality. I’ve ruled out neoprene as it’s too hot.

Any recommendations?

Yes-Marathon. Made right here in Montana.

I have them. They last forever and are a great fit.

John, not sure what you've looked at or had, but the high end custom fit ones have outlasted my truck. They're stupid expensive but worth it (almost a grand for the whole truck). When I traded in my old truck with 240K hard miles on it I pulled the seat covers off and the seats were surprisingly like new (driver's seat cover was a biohazard). Just put some Cover King ballistic nylon ones in the new truck and they're nice. The shopping experience is mind numbing though. Way too many drop downs and makes/models, choices, blah, blah.

My vote- Cabelas trailgear. I believe that is the name... Im no Cabela fan on a lot of their stuff, but my seat cover lasted 7 years, before it finally wore through recently. I use my truck often. I got a replacement in the mail today.. Only cost $20. For that amount, I'd buy new ones yearly if you are into new looking things...

This is what the seats in my old work truck look like after about 21 years and never having seat covers on.

I ordered a pair of seat covers from Durafit for my new work truck. They cost $129.00 plus $20.00 shipping. They were a real good fit and not too much of a pain in the butt to get on. I’ve had them on over a year now and they seem to be very durable.

I used points from a recent truck purchase with chevy and really like the carhartt seat covers I used on chevys site to get the covers. Fit good.

John I about peed myself laughing. Poor Savell. Making fun of his Auto Zone seat covers. I use to have a horse blanket close to that pattern.
