Help with leather

I currently have the black leatherette seats in my car and I don't mind them at all but I have been having a slight problem. The leather is cracking on my driver side. I've noticed about two spots now and they are rather large. Is there a way to seal them that looks decent? For example are leather repair shops going to do anything? Thanks!

In most areas, you can find companies which do leather crack repairs like that. They are remarkably good at it, if you find the right company.

I first used this service in the early 1990s on a Toyota Cressida with leather seats and a large crack on the side bolster, driver side.

The repair matched the color of the leather perfectly, and seriously you could not even tell there was a repair done. This technique I'm sure has gotten even better over the last 20+ years.

Good luck !!
