Provided are: a seat skin material which is composed of a solid knit fabric that achieves both seating comfort and heating comfort and that further exhibits excellent abrasion resistance; and a seat comprising said seat skin material. A seat skin material according to the present invention is composed of a solid knit fabric that comprises: a front-layer knitted fabric; a back-layer knitted fabric; and a connecting strand that connects the front-layer knitted fabric and the back-layer knitted fabric. The seat skin material is characterized in that: an exterior side surface of the front-layer knitted fabric serves as a seating surface; and the seat skin material has a thermal conductance value of 8.0 W/m2·°C or more, an air permeability of 50 cc/cm2/sec or more in terms of airflow penetrating the solid knit fabric from the back-layer knitted fabric to the front-layer knitted fabric, a thermal dissipation value of 5.0 W/m2·°C or more, and a contact cool feeling of 75 W/m2·°C or more at the seating surface.
