Re: Cloth V.S. Leather
I'm an airplane mechanic by training, even though I don't do that anymore. But a long long time ago I worked for an airline, okay it was maybe 10 years ago. We had our choice of seating materials for the cabins of our regional jets. Guess what won out for durability and cost over time. Leather. Yup, it was cheaper to make seat covers out of leather rather than cloth (any cloth) because it cost less over time. Initial investment was of course higher, but leather could go 10 years or better in a regional airline environment vs. having to make the same seat covers 3 or 4 times out of cloth.
Then throw in the adjustability of the leather power adjustable seats and it is no contest. Sorry guys, I initially meant to go with cloth seats for the cost. UNTIL I test drove a demo in leather. Haven't looked back since...
