I've worked with leather for the last 35+ years and the chain covers look good ! BUT, it's life span is limited in the weather and many of the "leather" conditioners contain alcohol which is something you really don't want on it ,use mink oil it works much better on leather as a conditioner and water repellant and doesn't cost as much as many conditioners sold it's available at Walmart and many other places in the shoe department .There are also many Vinyl materials which give the same exact look are made to with stand all weather conditions are UV treated and don't require the maintenance of real leather . They sure dress up the back of the truck and help protect the paint .
