Vinyl isn't something I'm very fond of. Your skin can stick to it, it can have unappealing plastic smells (sometimes), and it can also vary from thin to thick. Naugahyde is a brand of vinyl/pleather that is pretty darn thick and has a backing to it, so it can be extremely durable. I have some samples of it, and it is so thick, that I don't think it would wrap around complex shapes well without wrinkles. I also have a chair that I recovered with the stuff, and my legs stick to it like crazy. I can't sit on that chair more than a few minutes without getting uncomfortable.

I actually NEVER wear pants and I mean NEVER - I wear shorts year round. In 2008 I wore pants a total of like 3 times; twice for court and once for something else.
I don't remember having any problems with the seats sticking to my legs though, but then again my legs are pretty damn hairy.

Do you wear ghetto shorts that go three inches past your knees? 
I literally can't sit in my old computer chair I recovered in naugahyde for more than about 15 minutes without getting stuck to it and uncomfortable.
