Luxor Beige interior-denim transfer?
I recently picked up my 991.1 C2 about 2 weeks ago now, is a nice silver/platinum metallic, almost a 'silver champagne' in the right light, has the full leather Luxor Beige interior. Having previously DD'd a BMW with the Oyster (white) interior, I figured a little denim/clothing transfer would happen, but not this bad. I typically wear unfinished denim to work every day and I'm already seeing a lot of coloration on the bottom of the seat, plus the backrest side bolster. As a larger guy (6'3) my entrances/exists are not always graceful, but I do the best I can to not kick/nick the doors and not press hard against the seats getting in/out.
My seats have the ventilated and heated options so are perforated.
Am I just going to have to hit the seats with Lexol every week to keep up with it? That, or just go back to trousers every day, which I'm sure my wife would like actually... The car is nigh immaculate for being a 2013. The passenger seat doesn't look like it's ever been sat in.

My wife has had several cars/SUVs with beige seats and a bit of blue pants dye always transferred to the driver's seat.
You'll just have to live with it, I'm afraid.

It can also be dye transfer from other leather goods, like belts and jackets/coats.

Also had the same coloration transfer from jeans to my '14 991 with luxor beige.
Went as far as telling any passengers I was planning to pick up that I had a no jeans rule.
Was hard for me as well since I wore jeans to work daily. Would swap to trousers and/ or opt for the seat covers if you find a style that works w/ your vehicle.

Leather Masters make a dye transfer cleaner that works really well.
