All these suggestions are spot-on. I have ridden the B17 and B17 narrow since the early 70's. Well made for a lifetime and are comfortable in the extreme. A few years ago I went through a "what 's new" segment after my B17N was stolen. Tried many saddles, expensive to cheap. Road 'em several hundred miles each to be fair. Nothing compares to the leather sprung (no plastic platform/foam) saddle for me; until, I received a C15 from Brooks. This saddle is just as sublime as the B series! It's built to last a lifetime. I now use it on one of my two road bikes (the other has a replacement B17 N and the B17 is on my mountain bike. Now I'm set for life (and maybe someone else since I'm getting on in years..Ha!) All our butts need broken-in, so any saddle will feel bad until everyday (or nearly so) ridding cures the problem. There are lots of saddle manufacturers and after searching you may find one or more to your liking. I have found that all riders I personally know have stopped searching after purchasing a Brooks saddle.
