For women and smaller riders who desire pressure relief, the B17 Carved Short features the ñregistered cuttingî technology which first appeared on Brooks saddles in the 1890s. Leather is a naturally breathable material that provides a unique type of well-being. The leather top is suspended over the saddle rail to create a suspended moulded seat, similar to a hammock, for tailored lasting comfort. Journey after journey, our leather naturally moulds to the unique shape of the rider for a more comfortable ride.
