I need to find a good set of seat covers for the crosstrek for when we go kayaking. When I get in the car my pants are soaking wet and I hate to sit directly on the light tan seats. Do you guys have any suggestions for a good seat cover? I would want it to look like it wasnt just a cheap piece of crap you buy at wal mart. I would like something that would be waterproof but not sweat you, and to be washable. Suggestions?

The covers discussed in this thread seem to be the best option, but they apparently do limit the functionality of the center armrest. Not cheap, either. http://clubcrosstrek.com/index.php/topic,777.0.html
Still trying to decide if I am going to pick some up or not.

If it is just for kayaking, could you just toss down some plastic and then a towel or two over? That's what I do, since I am generally not wet in my car. A lot cheaper than seat covers too.

I think only if you get the center console cover does it affect anything. I may be wrong, but I believe the seat covers themselves don't touch the center console.

That said, I do think the Wet Okole covers are your best bet. They are a bit pricey but everyone says they are by far worth the price.
