I did have to have the stitching re-done on one of the seams this last winter. This one is an exclusive use outdoor cover. Still waterproof after all this time in the sun and rain.

Expect to pay more htan $100. Way more. But the fit, craftsmanship, and materials are without question worth the premium.

Are you sure about them being waterPROOF? I think they are water-resistant.
Big difference!
I worked in the car cover business for years at Beverly Hills Motoring Accessories, one of my bosses there is the owner of Cal Car Cover Co.
You really don't want a 100% waterPROOF cover as it will trap moisture underneath the cover causing big problems with your paint. A cover needs to breathe and allow moisture to escape. It would be better for the car to let it sit out in the pouring rain UN-covered than to cover it with something waterproof.
I sold literally 1000s of covers over the years and I personally would not own one. Besides the moisture issue, if your car is the least little bit dusty/dirty and you drag a car cover over it, it's like using fine grit sandpaper.

Call Cal Car Cover Co and ask them if their covers are WaterProof or Water Resistant. Nowhere on their website does it say waterproof!
