2017 Jayco HT leatherette

We're in the process of ordering a 2017 Jayco HT 5th wheel, and we're concerned about the decor options. "Leatherette" is the fabric for the darker colours for the couch and chairs. The only cloth option is a light beige--probably not a good idea for camping use. Has anyone had experience with this "leatherette"? Does it stick to your skin?

    Personally, I'm not much in favor of non-cloth, but the mfrs give us little to no choice. I guess their designers, and the execs who sign-off on their designs, have never had swamp-a$$ in the summer. I've heard the same excuse from 2 different mfrs, "just throw a cover over it". Riiiiiight...
