If you drive to your workout site — a pool or gym, perhaps a running track, bike trail or skate park — then you know what happens at the end of a workout: Your workout suit gets wet with healthy sweat, and maybe you’re muddy or rain-soaked, too.

So when you climb into the driver’s seat for the trip back home to hit the shower, you end up saturating that car seat and making a mess.

What to do?

You might bring along a towel to cover the seat, usually. Instead, you could invest in an improvement — it’s called the Car Seat Vest.

Think of a soft and absorbent towel of pure cotton terry velour that’s cut to fit a driver’s bucket as protection following a workout or surfing at the beach. It slips into the seat like a custom-cut suit and covers from the headrest down to side bolsters and seat cushion. And it shields the upholstery from moisture and mud or sand — even dog hair, when you jog with Fido.

The soft terry fabric of the Car Seat Vest also protects your bare skin from the sting of a sun-baked seat in summer.

This special vest installs in a wink and can be removed for cleaning in a washing machine. It measures 58 inches long by 26 inches wide.

The Car Seat Vest comes from Solutions for $29.95 plus a modest freight fee. Call 877-718-7901 or visit www.solutions.com to order.
