Saddles - what else is there apart from Flites/Selle Italia that are cool/retro/

[Monkeeee01]

Looking for a new saddle for a project. Only ever bought Flite’s so keen to hear what else people like. I just like plain black, understated saddles with no crazy decals or shapes

Thanks

A classic retro road saddle could be a Selle Italia Turbo, a Selle San Marco Concor or Rolls , not sure about mountain bike retro though ......

Turbo saddles look good on older bikes, Ritchey Vectors are a nice Flite alternative.

X-lites are nice.

My posterior requires more modern tech to be comfy these days though.

Avocet and Vetta are another two brands to add to the list.

Xlite pss1 , SDG Ti2000 , or even other Selle Italia ones like a genuine gel etc

Retro
One of the most overlooked saddles: Avocet O2 ti



Had many. Soooo COMFY. I actually ran the female version off road - Noice.
Thinks...are there any in the barn somewhere?

Comfy
Anything made by Fabric
Particularly their 'flat' models in 142 or 148
