Leather and vinyl chairs are far easier to wipe clean with a mild detergent. If germs are a major concern, it is hard to beat the benefits of a smooth surface. Leather is more durable than vinyl but overall, they both work well. However, the downside is they tend to be more expensive and can be a little cold at first when you sit. Which is best for a particular individual is a judgement call based on personal preference.
