feel and texture of leather is very good. BUT the cushions are impossibly hard (church bench hard). I wrote an email regarding this and the response was that they would soften up over time. Well its been since May 2016, almost a year and they haven't "softened up" a bit. My driving position was raised maybe 1", I'm 5'11" and when going over humps I hit my head with the T-top so I ended installing a bucket. Really wanted to keep the OEM seat, but cannot fit inside with a helmet. Hope this helps. If anyone has a tip on how to get the foams softer I would gladly appreciate it!
