Is there a real leather version of Wintec webbers out there?

I need a stirrup leather that works like the wintec webbers, but I would like to buy it in real leather in order to protect my saddle. Do you know of anything like this? Below is a link to the wintec webbers:

Update:

So I have found a version called Bates, EasyFit, and Prestige. Anybody have opinions on those brands?

    Bates and Wintec are the same company; Bates is the high end leather goods and wintec is the lower cost easy care part of the company.

    I have used the Bates variety; they are very soft and flexible, but they tend to be so soft that they need to be replaced frequently (yearly). I have not heard of EasyFit, but I can say that Prestige makes really lovely leathers and I would not be hesitant to purchase them. I have not used this style of Prestige leathers, but the regular Prestige leathers (web lined, leather covered) are what I use on my saddles and have not had any problems in 7 years of use!

    If I were interested in this style of leather, I think I would choose the Prestige brand of them.
