I was looking for a recommendation for seat kick mats that can be installed on the front seats, so my kids don't ruin the seatback leather with their feet. I found some at Babysrus, but they don't really fit the Odyssey too well. (Mainly due to the handle on the back of the seat.)

My search yielded a similar thread from 2009, which digressed into a 'why don't you just teach your kids to not kick the seat, etc...' discussion....

Just to be clear, I'm looking for a recommendation, not child raising advice. Thanks

Know what, recently I started asking my kid to wipe his feet before getting into the van, and it's mostly working (he's quite infatuated with our new Ody ). But the odd times he reverts to kicking the seatback (and my back .....), I or Mom will just take his shoes off. Takes care of not ruining the seatback with grime.

BTW, I also pushed his seat (2nd row left) back towards the stern, now he can barely reach my seatback

I'm glad our 4yrs boy and 8yrs girl didn't do this, because most of our owned cars got leather seat, and I kept telling them everytime they ride with us. You guys either sit here or get out if you ever kick.

TT,

One of these on the back of each seat.

Your seatbacks are leather? Mine aren't. Some sort of synthetic material. Actually cleans up VERY easy and hasn't degraded or worn at all in 6 years of multiple "kicking" episodes. If it isn't leather, I'm not sure you are saving yourself any effort?

Yes, mine are leather. So far, I havent found any kick nats that work. I have just been cleaning the seatback with baby wipes..

I've been using these:



Sunshine Kids Stuff 'n Scuff Seat Protector - Black

Amazon.com: Sunshine Kids Stuff 'n Scuff Seat Protector - Black: Baby



I removed the handle on the seat back of the front seats. It comes off very easily with just 2 screws under the screw hole covers. Then this seat back protector attaches nicely.

In case non of the above solutions work, this might .......... D

I am pretty sure the seat backs on leather equipped cars are not leather. It is pleather or vinyl. Only seating surfaces are leather.
I know that does not help you, but maybe it will ease your mind.

Agreed, that's certainly the case with the leather seats in my 2006 Honda Odyssey Touring, 2005 BMW X5, 2011 Audi S4 and 2012 Audi Q7. In fact, although my other vehicles have real leather on the sides, I'm not even sure that's the case with my Honda.

You can rest assured that it may be at least be genuine naugahyde ......

But you might rather have genuine Corinthian leather

I looked up what naugahyde is, turns out its another variant of pleather. D
The more interesting fact that I learned is that it was pioneered in Naugatuck, Connecticut, which is two town over from where I live (Cheshire).
