OK so how would
these work? Your grubby paws all over brand new leather mats????
They look great and not vastly over-priced but I can't see how they're at all practical???

What were you looking for in leatherwear to discover these.... >:D
Looks iffy - but that just be lack of care. Website is dreadful and the address incomplete with about 100 homes in the road, making returns a challenge.
But then I'm just the suspicious sort......

These are very popular on the facebook groups. quite a few companies offering them.
Personally, I don't like them at all and agreed, no idea how you would keep them clean? Almost looks like a desi house rule application - shoes off before entering!

Hi
I think it's okay if you have a valeter as the cleaning your car as it would be there prob
)
On a Bentley It would probably be okay, but given all the different applications most X5's have to perform from trips to the tip and holidays, walks in the country with muddy boots etc I think they are not very practical.
Although I guess leather is hard wearing and you could always try polish or apply dubbing or or waterproof spray to them.

...or stick some clear plastic protection over the top, y'know like you get for sofas.... Yep, that would look really classy!

Those mats in the pictures they do look super sexy but in practical use they would be about as much use as a
'Inflatable Dartboard' they would never show you pictures of them after a while and how they have stood upto the everyday use that mats get in a car.
