It is indeed showing wear after maybe 3 years of fairly light use. Some fraying and abrasions on the cotton. That said it is the most comfortable saddle I've ever had. I hate the saggy Brooks leather saddles. I replaced a wider, softer Terry Liberator with this one. It is quite neutral feeling. Not soft, not hard ...just makes contact where needed without overstating its presence.
As stated, the black one at BA's link will not show the stains.
