Start with foam replacing?
I can give you some pointers if you want, my g/f used to make custom Vespa saddles with snakeskin and antleader, you know what I mean.
Basically you want closed cell foam (the little sleep rolls you can buy in camping supplies)

Made a ratbike saddle from it. Let me find a picture.

Something like this. https://ultralightoutdoorgear.co.uk/featherweight-evazote-foam-mat/

Ive got a load of neoprene from custom motorbike saddles.....

 

[Tootyred]

The problem is, if you start changing the foam from standard, the seats comfort and ride will change......I'm comfortably on a flite...but not sure about one with neoprene base!

Neoprene can be closed or open cell foam.
Closed cell foam is not Neoprene.
