One of these looks right for my retro build, but I'd like to know what I'm getting and it's a bit confusing. Has anyone got one?

It looks like there's a real leather one in black or tan - does that have a suede finish, and does the suede wear off to a smooth surface like they used to?

There also seems to be a microfiber (man made cover) version, what's the surface like? Plasticky or okay?

Any advice appreciated

  • I have an original 1980 Bernard Hinault model. The newer one looks very similar. I don't think any modern made saddle is covered in real skin
