Brooks B17 for Blue Lug Saddle - Brown
Introducing the “B17 FOR BLUE LUG”, a special edition of Brooks' classic B17 STANDARD saddle.
One of the first things you’ll notice is the nameplate area on each side. The Japanese text "おなまえ", which means "name," invites you to personalize the saddle. You can engrave your name, your family’s name, or even your pet’s name using tools like a grinder, metal stamp, or carving knife—letting everyone know exactly who this saddle belongs to.
Another unique feature is the reversed leather material, which places the internal batch code visibly on the surface of the saddle.
You’ll see the code "2B5" engraved, which indicates the production date: the numbers "2" and "5" refer to the year 2025, while the letter in the middle—"B"—represents February. Brooks skips the letter "I" to avoid confusion with the number "1", so the months go from "A" (January) to "M" (December, excluding "I").
Also visible is the number "2883", which refers to the specific leather batch used. These subtle codes add a layer of appreciation for the craftsmanship—something to notice and enjoy even when you're off the bike.
The saddle also features side holes and comes with laces, allowing you to tie them for extra support and to help maintain the saddle’s shape over time.
Finally, each purchase includes a Brooks x Blue Lug triangle reflector—a special bonus item. These reflectors feature a leather backing in a matching color to your saddle, combining function with style.
