I have a Brooks Imperial with right about 1000 miles on it. My experience was that as the saddle started to break in, the slot started to pinch. At that time I tightened up the laces. No more pinching. That was about 800 miles ago.

Muirenn, I also think that a honey colored Brooks with matching tape would be lovely. Unfortunately, the Imperials only come in black. Oh well, it's not as flashy so I suppose that it's less likely to be stolen
