They look nice. I need to redo my seats and the cost for vinyl is less than 1/2 of leather but I am concerned about the feel/comfort of vinyl vs. leather.

Mercedes Benz has something they call MBtex that is a leather like vinyl covering. I have that in one of my cars and it's decent, hard to tell the difference but most of the vinyl I see for sale looks and feels like vinyl.

this vinyl has a grain effect on it that looks like leather. i would say the feel is just a tiny bit harder than leather. after sitting on it for a hour, my backside cant tell the difference between vinyl and leather
