Rene Herse Saddles...any forumites tried these

His product line always intrigued me. I"m looking to replace an aging saddle and these caught my eye. The design is different than the Selle Italias that I have used for many years. Any forumites put miles on these??

Do you mean Berthoud? I'm not aware that Rene Herse had its own line of saddles.

I have a Berthod Aspin that I've been using since 2012. It's my favorite saddle, and I've used a good number of other high-end saddles including Brooks.

I have been using Berthoud saddles for a couple of years now. Very high quality and comfortable.

I had the Ti Berthoud for a while and it was comfortable. I'm not sure why I changed. Probably in favor of my Fizik. I haven't been doing the big miles lately so I've used more plastic saddles in recent years, but I still have my Brooks Swallow. That one is my favorite comfort-wise, but Berthoud definitely uses thicker, nicer leather!
