I like Mr. Squirrel's idea of leather as mohair maybe too thick. 

If you can make it look good and you like the color, leaving the foam exposed might be a good option. 

Otherwise, alcantara is a non-porous, durable, synthetic suede that looks good and comes in a variety of colors. I am not sure of cost, though.
