Upholster seats

Hi

I need to get my ribcraft seats etc upholstered, is there a reason why nobody uses hypalon to cover the seats, Is it due to cost
i just wanted them to match the tubes

Would guess the stitching will pull out quicker than vinyl.

I managed to find an almost identical vinyl colour - to the point that my other half thought I had new patches put on the boat to match the new seats.
