I've been looking for canvas seat covers for some time.

Black duck look the goods but pricey.

Melvill and Moon from UK look the ducks guts but also 215 pounds.

I decided I wouldn't worry.

Then I was in Autopro today and they had various offerings. I bought a pair for the front seats for $69.

Mine are 'canvas look alike'. The real canvas were an unattractive grey and were $195.

I figured with cloth upholstery I could get away with synthetic fabric. Vinyl seats and you'd need canvas.

Black duck $418

Melvill and Moon $352

Its hard to see how a simple canvas cover can cost so much.

Thanks for that Bob. I need some more seat covers for a work vehicle and was interested in the price :)

I bought the Autobarn ones a couple of years ago, good for the price. They've had a few cape trips, washed them a couple of times in the machine, came up good.
There are convenient pockets at the back, sides and front.

Supercheap had some excellent sheepskin covers, with back pockers and side designed to be OK for airbags, at $179 a pair last week. Got some. Thois week, not sure if they still have them at that price..

I also had the same dilema and ended up buying a set of front seat canvas covers from Autopro for $180 a pair about 4 months ago. Was pretty happy at that price, would have been exstatic at $69. They are on my farm ute, cop a beating and handle it all well.
Good luck to you @ $69!
