Seat cover recomendations

I'm looking for seat covers for my 97 tacoma (with the oh so useful split bench). I'm hoping for something thats tough;resists tearing and abrasion (I'm always hoping in with some tool in my back pocket, work truck and all) that's maybe also easy to clean (wipes off easy?).

I saw some cool ones on a land cruiser site (rising sun I think) that were made from water repellent canvas, but they were only available for the cruisers. Any suggestions would be be greatly appreciated (especially if you can get the above qualities coupled with a nice aloha print).

I'm looking for seat covers myself. Has anyone made some home made. I was thinking about "sunbrella fabric". The material that the CANBACK soft tops are made of? It seems pretty wear resistent and great for outdoor use. Don't know if you want true custom fit? If not it seems pretty easy to make a templet for the seats. With a little sewing and elastic you would at least have good protection for the oem seats.

Cordura seat covers; now that I like. I dig the wet okle aloha prints, but I'm not so sure the material is what I'm after.
Thanks everyone for the advice/opionions. Keep the suggestions coming if there are some others I should be checking out.

(as for sewing my own-not me, and sadly, not my girlfriend either).

try covercraft seat-savers. I have them in the rear, they are like denim, wear in nice. Very easy to clean, and solid colors(which I like).
