This is the first vehicle I've owned with leather seats. they are still in great shape, and I'd like to keep them that way. What, if anything, should I be using on them to keep them looking good. Also, these are the heated and cooled seats that blow cold air up yer butt, if that makes a difference...

I use Mothers leather conditioner about once a month, be warned for a day or so after you treat them they will be very slick...

1st thing- when you and or your wife/passenger exit the truck, don't use the seat like a slide at the local fun park. Step out of the truck.
2nd just drive the truck, leather seats seem to be more durable these days. Yeah I'm real careful about that but I have to fuss at MrsGomer Every. Single. Time.

Just a warm semi damp cloth to clean them and a good leather conditioner once every few months will keep most seats in good shape.

If you find something that works let me know. Try as I might, they always seem to develop cracks after about the fifth year of ownership.

I use Lexol cleaner and conditioner. Works great on real leather.
I also use it on boots and it will make an old dried our pair look like brand new.

I am in and out a lot and always wear out the leather on drivers door edge, and the heel of my boot wears a hole in the spot under the pedals.

Condition with pure emu oil. Nothing better. Period
There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??

Marathon seat covers on front seats....Superhides.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I got neoprene seat covers...waders basically.
I also was reading about everyday household items to use for different things. They said use olive oil. I have not tried it. I bet your balls never stop sweating in the summer.
