Alcantara is an ideal material for accessories due to its stretchability and subtle aesthetics.
Alcantara Selection
Choose from a wide selection of Genuine Alcantara™
Alcantara is a brand of synthetic microfiber, made from polyester and polyurethane that feels extremely similar to natural suede while being lighter, and more durable.
Alcantara was first developed by Toray Industries in Japan during the 70s who partnered with ENI SpA to market and distribute the product.
It has since been regarded as the highest quality material on the market.
All synthetic suede materials available in the Bespoke Recaro Seat Program are exclusively sourced from Alcantara™.

Deep Black is a rarely used color by BMW M. To my knowledge, it made its first appearance in the BMW Performance catalogue with the signature Sportster CS derived seats.

BMW M's 9040.
The BMW Deep Black 9040 has slight variance to the run-of-the-mille Deep Black from Alcantara.
The standard black has a slight green hue not found on the original BMW 9040. We exclusively use BMW M's Deep Black in our program.

Our intention was to offer an OEM level re-creation of the discontinued BMW Performance seats down to the most minute details.
Every single stitches, the unique foam, the custom paint and embroidery along with the electronics integrated into the OEM seats were dissected.
The program expanded upon the original BMW Performance seat with recreations of signature Recaro seat designs.
