Got My 2024 F-150 XLT Leather Seats… Worth It?

Check out my new leather seats on the 2024 F-150! Installed Alea leather, and I’m loving it so far. Curious what you all think…


Looks awesome! I just got an STX and have been thinking about leather too. Was looking at Katzkins, but these look even better!

Man, those seats look super comfy! Love the color too.

This setup runs about $1,800 with installation included.

Is that for front and back seats, and does it include the arm pad on the center console? That’s a good price. Where are you located?

Wow, that’s sweet! Did you go with Katzkin?

Nah, went with Alea leather.

Alea’s way better than Katzkin in my opinion. I have both, and Alea feels softer and nicer.

@Nori
How long do these usually last? I’m less concerned about the brand and more about durability. The older FX4s had leather with cloth centers that were perfect. Wish I could get those again.

How much did it cost you, including installation?

When you replace the seat cover with leather, does it leave any noticeable creases or wear marks? Thinking of doing this but not sure how it holds up.

Hey! It’s not just a cover, it’s a full replacement of the factory cloth. We strip the original seats down and put the leather on. Hope that clears it up!

Got it, thanks for explaining!

These look better than the ‘leather’ in my Tremor. Ford’s leather is really not great.

Great color choice, it really pops.

Looks amazing, I’m jealous! What camera did you use? The pic quality is so good.

Thanks! Just took it on an iPhone 15 Pro.

I really need to upgrade my phone… still using an iPhone 11!

EXIF data shows it’s probably from an iPhone or iPad.

These look great! I’ve been skipping cloth seat XLTs, but these leather replacements might be the way to go.

That’s got a nice ‘work boot’ vibe to it.

So tired of the boring black interior in my ‘19 Platinum. I need something like this!
