Nope, not my first leather saddle, remember I'm the OP with the black leather saddle staining light colored clothing. I have a b68 on my more upright bike and the saddle in question is b17 Imperial which I inadvertently got furniture polish on. I believe that was the catalyst for the bleed, although I realize there is always the potential for the dye to come off of any leather saddle. From what I've read and seen it seems like the black saddles are the worse offenders. Does anyone have any experience with the honey color staining light colored clothing?
