Beat the Heat this Summer with Shearling Accessories for Your Car

August 2, 2015

Most of us love basking in the warm sunny days that summer typically brings us, but we are all singing a different tune the moment we have to climb into a stifling hot car in the heat of the summer. Did you know that the temperature in your car can reach up to 120 degrees, depending on how long you leave it parked in the sun? Then, of course, you get inside and grab hold of a scorching hot steering wheel, simultaneously burning yourself on the metal part of your seat belt. Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do about keeping your car cool in the summer, besides parking in the shade and cracking your windows, but there are a few ways you can protect yourself from scorching seat belts and steering wheels.

Sheepskin Car Products Handmade to Order

Believe it or not, sheepskin is the easiest answer to a hot car in summer. That’s right, your cozy wintertime staple can also keep you nice and cool during the hottest months of the year. Wondering how that works? Sheepskin is a natural material featuring hollow fibers that allow your skin to breathe and wick away moisture from the body, thereby keeping you cool even when the temperature is scorching hot and rising. To keep yourself a little cooler this summer, check out our authentic sheepskin car accessories:

Shearling steering wheel cover – This custom steering wheel cover puts luxury right at your fingertips, with a 100% shearling construction and designed to fit your car’s steering wheel year after year. Use your sheepskin steering wheel cover year-round for extra warmth and comfort in the winter months too!

Sheepskin seat belt cover – Made from the same luxurious sheepskin material as your favorite car seat covers, this seat belt cover will protect your neck from being rubbed raw by your seat belt, and keep the hot belt off your chest on toasty warm days, too. The stylish seat belt cover also features a Velcro closure for easy on and off.
