I ordered the stretch version because I have other pleated saddles, but I'm considering changing my order to the XPD. @Squatch please give me a suggestion... help a brother out. Do you think they will work with me if I want to change? The pleated saddles have been my favorite design (like the one shown or the orig kestrel flex), but I'm also liking the latitude classic, but need more time with it. I figured the stretch was kind of between and one I haven't tried. I've had mesh TX-5 which was pleated.
Send me a PM or something.

I went fusion &
Molle Color
Ranger Green
Leg Strap Attachment
Cobra Buckles
Bridge Adjustment Side
Left
Chassis Webbing Color
Coyote Tan
Leg Strap Webbing Color
Coyote Tan
Seat Style
Stretch

I'm honestly impressed & it out did my expectations. It's hard to explain, but it feels a lot lighter
& better form fitting then the reaper, which wears great. The buckles weigh less then half the weight
of the older buckles, & a lower profile. The way the HPR system sits, it makes the saddle perfectly
conform around me. I'm not completely sure why yet, but once I loaded my bags, doyles & holster,
the saddle felt literally half the weight on my hips the the reaper. Walks around great.

For reference I'm a 34 waist but went with a large on both the reaper & lonestar. Perfect fit & the
loops sit great for a low tether & short bridge.

There's obviously something magic with the HPR for sure. Glad I didn't resist while they're available.
I'd give it 10 stars out of 5!

I’m curious about the sizing. I wear size 38 jeans. According to the chart I’d be a large. I’m 6 ft 2 in tall. 250 .Plus it gets plenty cold here during the rut so laying up comes into play. Currently I have size 3 cruzr xc that fits well. Leaning towards the xl but don’t want to swim in it. Idk

Honestly I'd go up a size, so the xl for you. Reason I say that is, I went up a size & it's actually perfect
for my liking. The way the belt slides, it cinches down as tight as you need, even with weight added.
With the size up it lets the bridge loops & linesman loops sit just a little more forward & reduces any
possible pinch even more. What I really like having one size up, it lets me put my teher at sternum height
& run the bridge really short. Even like that I can still walk all around a ROS without much adjustments.
Really comfortable.

Worse come to worse it will just tickle your tant a little on the walk if your leg straps are tight. Kinda like
it. Easy fix is just loosening a little. The leg straps that is. Come winter & heavy clothes you'd still be good
to go. Getting a size up was the best decision I made with the TX5s.
