Neoprene Seat Covers?

Newbie mini owner here...
I have a 2008 Mini S with the sport seats and am looking to get some neoprene seat covers. Can anyone recommend some? Thanks

Jess

Wet Okole have the best neoprene covers. I had some on my FJ Cruiser and think I might get some for the Mini. You can custom order pretty much anything you want too!

Related question, since I'm considering picking up some neoprene seat covers, too: would you say that they are more/less/the same comfortable than the leatherette seats? My main complaint about the leatherette is that, in our generally warm climate, the seats get a little warm (noticeably more "sweaty" than the perforated leather on my Pilot). I mainly want to protect the seats (a little wear, since it's an '03, and we've got a baby on the way), but want to see if they will also give me more comfort.

The neoprene seat covers will not breath like cloth, but they are better than the non-perforated leatherette cause they have the fabric cover. But they will still be warmer than cloth.

I bought the ones from Moss Mini and love em. The only down fall I have found is the seat belt gets hung up on the airbag cover if you close the door once you get in then put your seat belt on. If you leave the door open, put your seat belt on, no issues. But they are great covers
