Exactly. If Brooks had gone out of business years ago and their saddles were no longer available, I could understand trying to restore an old one. However, fortunately, they still make them using the same meticulous manufacturing methods and high quality leather. They are absolutely the best, and although there are a few imitators that aren't bad, Brooks saddles are in a class of their own. Considering what some modern plastic saddles cost, the price for the basic Brooks models is very reasonable. Just stay away from expensive nonsense like titanium rails and signature models.
