I got the standard, it’s my first saddle but it’s been comfortable but I don’t have anything to compare it to. I think it’ll be worth the wait and josh is super busy and can’t find good help is what he told me

I got the standard as well, thinking it would speed up the delivery process. He can build up a stock of those, where the customs have to be built to order.
 
I reached out for a time frame. Hopefully its in before bow opener oct 18th
 
Having ordered mine on Sept 15th, my hopes that it will be in by opening day are getting slimmer as i hear more reports about delays.

If its not delivered in time, i may just cancel and use my current saddle to see what comes out next year.
 
I just ordered a set of his suspenders I guess I will be waiting a while. Saddles do look nice though.
 
I order the suspenders a while back and got them quickly. But that was 2-3 months back. I wanted the custom pouch as well. But couldn’t figure out why it went from $30 something the $70 something without me telling them what “custom” looked like for me. I tried emailing and after a couple days. I just sent the order with just the suspenders.

They are great tho. I did remove the clamps and just hard wired them to the molle loops.

I ordered mine on Aug. 2. I emailed with them last week & they are just waiting on material, they really don't have an answer for when it will be done. It sounds like it's out of there hands.
 
Does anyone know the difference between the amsteel and rope bridge? I would assume just the bridge material and both would have an adjustable bridge.

Got an email notification that my pouch shipped Friday. Supposedly their first big shipment of G-hooks they ordered was lost in shipping shortly after I had ordered on 8-16

Did you make a custom order? I'm over those gear loops.

Yeah mine is custom. Still no complaints after about 30 hours sitting in it if I had to guess. Unbelievably comfortable.

So after the long wait, I finally got my roll pouch. This thing is slick for sure!

Guys I am impressed. My saddle came in today and I am just impressed!

I ordered this saddle because the XC fits my body type the best of the ones I’ve tried and this saddle looked like an XC on PED’s at first glance.

And that is basically what it feels like.

The quality is amazing - it feels extremely durable.

The saddle is deceivingly light. It feels essentially the same as the XC.

The panels really expand out providing noticeably more coverage than the xc.

Walking around my house, it walks the same as the XC.

The LB loops pointing outward is a really cool detail.

I had him throw on a loop to rappel with an atc/8 on the lower right side of the saddle.

The buckles do not feel heavy or cumbersome at all. The leg straps are extra long so I will likely chop them down a bit.

I cant wait to sit in this thing more but I don’t see why I wouldn’t hunt from this saddle this year over the other ones I have tried.

I am really pumped on this saddle. It was easily worth the wait!

Any idea how the Lg compares to a size3 XC?

It looks quite a bit bigger than ur size2 XC

In the ny saddle hunter you tube video, the XL looked bigger than a size3

I had a XC size 2 sold it (little big), got a TX5 last May (fits nice), when I ordered my Solitude back in early Aug I called Flatbranch, took specific measurements and they reccommended a L instead of a custom order, hope that it fits it has been a long wait. I am 5'10" 155 pounds.
Guess maybe the Solitude sizing is different, still a little weary that if too much space in webbing (air space) the pressure point will be exagerated in the upper and lower straps (that was the issue I had with the XC). Will find out soon I hope.
 
Does anybody know if the Lg solitude is wider at the hips than a size2 XC ?
