Cruzr Saddles taking orders 7/1

My XC came yesterday. Order 582. It's niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice, I was afraid that rapidly increasing production might create some quality issues as they adjusted, but it looks like that is not the case.
 
When I ordered my Cruzr XC on June 17 there was a cut off when so many saddles were ordered and on the website you couldn't order anymore until he caught up with orders. When I ordered the gray saddle wasn't available but on July first I saw it was so I switched my order to gray . Chad took care of it and switch it for me and if there's a problem with a saddle I'm sure he would handle it. The quality of the saddle is great no problem with it.
 
I shared y'all's concern 100%. So, I did a VERY close inspection (as should everyone with new gear), and I have found mine (order #587) to be exceptionally well-built.

It's sorta funny that a lot of us were thinking the same thing, but not posting it! I didn't want to cast a shadow on that round of ordering and be negative. I'm glad I was wrong! It's nothing against Chad, it's just common that when companies explode with demand that things can happen.
 
I was order number 560 i got mine 7/20/20. I forgot when i ordered it i have slept many times since then LOL. I got it out of the box and had to try it at ground level. Very comfortable. I am new to saddle hunting the cruzr xc is my first saddle. I am still trying to decide how I will climb a tree. leaning toward hawks or WE stepps. I have some sport climbers that I bought 20 years ago but now Im older and cant stand the ankle breaking anymore.
 
Just got mine in the mail today (order was around #700). Haven't hung in it yet. My first impression is that I am very happy and the build quality is excellent. The only parts where the stitching isn't perfect to near perfect are on the heavily reinforced lineman and bridge loops. There's many layers of webbing there and 3 rows of stitches to hold it together (not for structural support). The 3 rows of stitching are highly irregular (like two rows run together and ride on top of each other), likely owing to sewing through like 1/2" of folded over webbing. Not a big deal, and if Chad asked for it back to fix it I'd say "no thanks!".

I got the XC. I'm surprised when expanded that it doesn't come down a bit farther on my legs. I'm 6 foot even and it comes down about mid-thigh. I'm 180 lbs and got a size 2. Saddle belt was not pulled up high either. Some video reviewers with a size 2 and stating similar dimensions had the thing hitting the back of their knees when expanded.
