I bought 2 of them. The leather is real.
In a bike looks comfortable enought for the price , in another bike looks horrible,
In the most used bike the saddle tend to became squashed in the middle and the beack pressing my nuts, i fixed the last problem by regolating the inclination of the saddle but you should also regolate the center of the saddle which if is too forward the beack start "flattering" and slither against your pants.
To be honest i'am not repented to buy those saddles , they fit great and those little problems can be fixing by playng around with regolation. I have one on my condorino and the other one into my antique bike , since those bike are used rarely i'am not complaining.
An advice:
If you are looking for a saddle used for an elegant bike go for the one you posted;
If you are going to use the saddle daily go fot his model since the springs are just for aestetics , sometimes i find them annoyng

If you like the springs go for the big ones

On my fixed i used this type
https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1jjscP...Eq6AGMXXas.jpg and when i disassembled my bike i gave away the saddle , now is mounted into a restored atala (
you can see the saddle there) this saddle was one of the cheapest i buyed but one of the most comfy and durable ever.
Every saddle i posted above you can find on aliexpress/ebay/other , they were cheap but share almost the same "charm" as a brooks.
