Ok. I've always felt I could keep my seat better, because suede DOES stick:)...My saddle has worn so smooth now tho, I've thought about having new suede put on,,,guess it's just what you get use too.
My old fenders that I had replaced were tooled leather, The new ones were just rought out. I think that helped too to keep my foot in the stirrup.
Probably just my imagination tho.

Well, if I like it, maybe for my birthday.
I ride with a lot of weight in the stirrups, and each stride I try to ride the movement by sliding deeper as if I am trying to absorb it at the heel. Sticking to the saddle interferes with that I think, and keeps your weight higher in the seat.
But... They do make cushy suede seat covers for english saddles ;~D
