Abstract

A steering wheel cover comprising a core layer is disclosed. The core layer includes an inner surface molded to form and self-maintain an annular channel sized to receive an automobile steering wheel therein. The core layer also includes an outer surface and two opposing terminating edges. The steering wheel cover is devoid of an outer cover layer coupled to the core layer. Thus no adhesives or stitching are required. In particular embodiments, the core layer includes a first foamed material, such as but not limited to ethyl-vinyl acetate. The core layer may also include one or more protrusions extending from the outer surface of the core layer. The protrusions may include a second foamed material of a different hardness than the first foamed material. The core layer may also include ribs protruding from the inner surface of the annular channel and/or holes extending through the core layer.
