I've been riding Selle Italia Flite saddles exclusively for about 30 years. The only thing that fails is the leather cover that wears away eventually. So instead of just buying another saddle (at $100-130 a piece), I followed these instructions and gave it a go. Found a scrap piece of thin leather at a cobbler for $10.

Finished product:

Very nice!! I’ll have to keep this in mind given that the saddles i prefer are either pricey or discontinued / hard to find (or both).

Edit, I also have one that I don’t particularly like, but if it had a cutout and less padding in the nose, might be a decent road saddle. That will be another project
