Thanks. Man hands don't get sweaty easily, but my hands do get dry easily, so I do use a lot of lotion in the morning before heading out. So, maybe, this material isn't for me. That's too bad, b/c it looks nice and I'm sure it feels great WHEN NEW.
yea, it definitely wont last as long as regular leather. right now i am actually using an alcantara steering wheel myself. but i've only used it for a month or two. i am not expecting this material to last that long.

although my hands arent usually sweaty and its not too humid most around where i live so moisture doesnt get trapped in the material. this would certainly help make the alcantara last a little longer.
