it's just that this is rock hard, not like a brooks which I assume softens up because it is "just" leather.
cool looking saddle! (umm, a bit out of my price range, though) (wonder if I could get them to send me a sample for the clinic? )

I just pounded on each of my Brooks. The old one is pretty much as hard as my new one, it just has developed dents for my sit bones. My new one has no impression from me at all yet, but it's still incredibly comfortable. By the end of summer it should have sit-dimples.

Does the composite give or conform to the rider at all?

Edit to add: mind you, my "old" Brooks is only 3 years old. MimiTabby's oldest Brooks is something like 30 years old. They might get softer at that point!
