Absolutely, I change my saddle height!!!!!!!!!!
I actually didn't think of it until the middle of last winter. Last July I finally tired of cold feet, broke down, and bought cycling boots which had thicker soles.
I did not adjust my saddle height and within a couple weeks, I had knee problems.
Made the adjustment, and the knee problems went away.
Always, always, always make the adjustment.
Also ... as your Brooks starts to break in, you'll have to make a very slight saddle height adjustment too. The whole fit thing is fluid.
