At least I have Brooks, which I really do love. I agree on the tri shorts vs heavy chamois. I'm finding now that my Brooks is really broken in and formed to my anatomy that I am most comfy in wool boxers under unlined shorts or pants. (or tri shorts or old-fashioned thin chamois)
Don't feel bad Knot- my sit bones are just as wide as yours.
The Brooks are the ONLY saddles so far that have a back width wide enough for us. The others don't even come close. I might have tried a Selle Anatomica, but I checked out the back width of their very widest offering, and my sit bones would have been riding right on the hard edges of the saddle. No thanks.
I wear my hips proudly!
