Anyone have input on either or both of these saddles? If you have experience with both how do they compare? Thanks
Dang, hot take!!The classic blows the cruzr away in every aspect IMO
So what is so much better about the classic? I have been trying to make decision between the two for a month now.The classic blows the cruzr away in every aspect IMO

What other saddles have you tried?

Only fault of the classic i've heard is the short bridge loops. Close to hips. The cruzr s is diaper feel and mesh lacking support after some hang time.

Thanks for the reply and a great review. I have been leaning toward latitude for the adjustable bridge and price point. Happy to support a Michigan business also being from Michigan. The quality of the last saddle I bought was ok at best so hearing the classic is top notch sealed the deal. Thanks again!Cruzr S Vs Latitude classic
Features:
The latitude classic comes with a quality waist buckle and a quality Oplux adjustable bridge. Those are “upgrades” with the cruzr. The classic has removable leg loops and a fully adjustable bridge on both sides.
Quality:
The latitude classic and method for that matter show the highest workmanship on the market. Better than or equal to that of aerohunter. The 3 Cruzr’s I have had all had sloppy stitching similar to tethrd quality.
Comfort:
I felt a bit of hip pinch from the upper webbing on the Cruzr S and it rode up. I never got that riding up with the latitude classic and I don’t even use the leg loops. Once I found the sweet spot on the bridge loops for my bridge to ride. The classic was unequalled in comfort. I attribute that to the vertical webbing distributing the load not just relying on the 2 main pieces of frame webbing to support you.
Sizing:
The latitude classic only comes in one size. I am a 38” waist and it works good for me. I wouldn’t mind a bigger size offering for late season. The Cruzr offers 3 sizes which is nice but I believe latitude will be offering addition sizes this year
Price:
Upgraded Cruzr $245
Latitude classic $185
No brainer.... latitude classic for me.
