Any suggestions on seat covers

On my Vantage Sahara Tan interior (and my C8, also tan) I'm looking for a good option on a seat cover that looks OK, something like a terry cloth that will protect the bolster and other wear areas. Any one find a good solution? My interior was already in great shape, but I just had the small flaws on the drivers seat addressed and want more protection. The Aston should be somewhat easier than the C8 that has the side airbags in the seat.

Your Vantage has side mounted airbags also.

Why cover up beautiful leather seats? I'd keep them cleaned

It's not about cleaned, but the light tan interiors of the Vantages get scuffed far too easy and the dye wears prematurely - in all of the more recent Vantages I've owned that were not black. For some reason the black dye does much better. I also had 3 Lagonda's, all with light leather colors that did not have this problem, nor with any of the black interior Vantages I've had. So clean is not the issue, damage from wear is.

Long ago I gave up looking for a nice set of sheepskins, I couldn't find anybody that made them. Why is that?!

Color matched sheep skins BUT they just cover the center sections of the seat......not the bolsters. Pocket at the top covers the headrest area. Very comfy but I don't remember the vendor. I have them.
