selected Australian sheepskin. This is reflected in the higher price.

A: 7-10 days.
Q: Where are custom sheepskin seat covers made?

Q: Why is acrylic fur used on the back of sheepskin seat covers?
A: Genuine sheepskin does not have much stretch. To make universal fitting seat covers which
fit on a variety of seats, a stretchy material needs to be used. Acrylic fur looks and feels similar
to genuine sheepskin but is very stretchy resulting in a better fit.
Q: Can I have sheepskin seat covers made from 100% sheepskin.
A: These are no longer available.
Q: Are these made from Australian sheepskin?
A: Yes.
Q: If you use Australian sheepskin why do you not just make the seat covers in Australia?
A: All Australian sheepskins are sent overseas for processing first. There are no sheepskin
tanneries left in Australia. The processed sheepskins are then made into seat covers overseas
at a lower cost.
Q: I have contoured seats, will these still fit?
A: Most seats have at least a bit of contour. Universal fitting sheepskin seat covers will still fit these.
If the contour is very pronounced like sports seats, then custom made is recommended.
Q: Does the acrylic fur come off easily?
A: Our acrylic fur has been tested to not come off easily.
Q: How long is the warranty?
A: Depending on which quality of sheepskins you select, the warranty ranges from 12 months to
7 years.

Q: I have purchased sheepskin seat covers before, and found that the fur comes off onto my clothes.

sheepskin and the fur will not easily come off. We recommend that you shake off any loose fur that
may have collected from the factory before fitting them onto your seats.
