@obrentharris PMed me about something else and suggested I find a covered plastic saddle, rip off the original cover, and install the faux alligator hide as the new cover. I might just try that for the fun and audacity of doing so. However, I'm partial to Brooks under my butt.

Brent also suggested making new leather uppers for a pair of bike shoes out of the same leather hide--- but I'm guessing shoe uppers are beyond my capabilities!
I voted blue Pro so....

Would like to see a better, more well lit pic of it, maybe in sunlight to see better contrast.

How about some spats?
