At,
I have no doubt that your "butt" should have the best offered !
How about us "old butt" guys, the houndstooth was not an original on mine.
Is there something else available for us "old butts" ?

I spent $250 USD a chair two years ago.  That's for professional
disassembly and installation of new foams, using the original vinyl and new
(remnant) cloth inserts.

I had heard a lot of stories about how easy the houndstooth seat covers
would rip during installation.  But, my Butt deserves the very best!

perhaps.)
