SELLE ANATOMICA X1 Leather Saddle | A Leather Saddle That Feels Familiar From Day One
Comfort born from the unique "THE SLOT". SELLE ANATOMICA's standard model makes the appeal of leather saddles more accessible.
Leather saddles are said to conform to your body the more you use them, but it can sometimes take time to reach that level of comfort. The SELLE ANATOMICA X1 Leather Saddle was born to overturn that conventional wisdom.
Its greatest feature is the brand's unique "THE SLOT" central slit structure. By allowing both sides of the saddle to move independently and flexibly, it disperses pressure on the sit bones and perineum, providing a comfortable ride even on long distances.
The X series uses double-laminated leather. While enhancing durability, it also achieves a flexibility that allows it to conform to the body from the very beginning. This leather saddle combines a classic look with modern comfort, making it ideal for long rides and touring.
It pairs perfectly not only with chromoly frames and randonneurs, but also with gravel bikes and touring bikes. We recommend this saddle as a long-term companion you'll cherish.
