In 1997, Northwest Seat Covers established its manufacturing facility in the city of Vancouver, BC. It was also the year that Ford celebrated the launch of the All-New, 10th generation, Ford F-150 pickup truck. To help celebrate our 25th Anniversary we did a deep dive into customer data to discover and share information on the Best Selling Fabrics for F-150 Seat Covers.
The first F. Series truck was introduced back in 1948, but it only received the F-150 designation in 1975 along with the Famous Slogan "Built Ford Tough". Since then, sales of the F-150 have eclipsed all other Full-Size Trucks to become America's Favorite Pickup! This is the reason why Seat Covers for F-150 Trucks have become the Best Selling Seat Covers in the Full-Size Light Duty Segment of the market. Total U.S. sales of the F150 from 2000 to 2020 was 16,071,320 units with an average of 765,301 units per year. (91

For Heavy Duty Use: your truck seats could get wet or really dirty from mud, drywall dust or grease. If you tend to track a lot of dirt into your truck then we recommend that you Select Vinyl as your 1st Choice; especially if you need to wipe the seat covers clean quickly. The Atomic, Ballistic or OEM following closely behind.
For Medium Use: where you use your truck to carry tools and materials to a job site, we’d recommend the OEM or Atomic simply because they foot the bill for all medium duty tasks and provide lasting value for how you use your pickup.
For Light Use: we would recommend the Neo-Ultra™ with its 3X Waterproof Rating or the OEM with 2X Waterproofing, simply because they Save you Money, but tick all of the boxes for Solid Protection and Comfort.
At this point, these four fabrics can all get the job done, it’s just a matter of preference and how you feel about the look of the F-150 seat covers or how important an easy wipe-up is. Be mindful of temperature as vinyl can get pretty warm and quite cool in fall and winter. However, they all feature at least a 2X Waterproof Rating from us and the fabrics all surpass 250,000 for the double rub test; they should last for years!

Needed new covers for my 99 Super Duty and found NW. They had the design I needed and their turnaround was very fast. Received the covers in less than a week and they fit perfectly. Easy install, great materials and the price was very reasonable for the package. And made in Canada too! Highly recommended NW.
When I received these seat covers I was VERY PLEASE with the quality and looks of them.... and even MORE SO after I installed them in my 2020 Chevrolet 2500 HD Double Cab. They were a perfect snug fit! Definitely will keep Northwest Seat Covers in mind for my next seat cover order.
I didn’t know how essential seat covers were until I got my Northwest Seat Covers. As a professional sailor, I now can jump into my car after the gym without worry or even in full foul weather gear after racing offshore. They fit perfectly and are comfortable in all extremes.
I drive the neighborhood kids to soccer practice in our Tahoe, so I wanted seat covers for the 2nd and 3rd row seats. I saw your waterproof video and that was enough to convince me. Bought a couple of Pro-Gard seat covers and am very pleased with the installed product.
