For starters: How long have you been riding? What is the duration of your rides? What kind of bike do you have? What is your weight distribution? All on your sit bones like an omafiets or on your feet & elbows like a Time Trial bike? How wide are your sit bones? How wide is the seat? What clothing are you wearing? Underwear?
That's exactly the problem. There are "thousands upon thousands available in the market place" and I don't want to buy one and discover it sucks once I start using it. Was hoping for someone with experience with a particular saddle to recommend one. I'm just a regular rider, 20-50 miles at a time, just for fun and exercise. I usually wear padded shorts. The bike is an 80s steel Trek 420.
