I had an OF EL from about '94 or '95. The quality of the leather was
excellent. I ordered 2 new saddles from OF last year during a sales
promotion. I have to say I was shocked at the quality of the leather on the
2 newer OFs when they arrived! Very disappointed! I actually wanted to send
them back, but my husband felt that the leather was acceptable quality and
just wasn't finished to the same standard. I've wondered about this.

Cheryl, hoping they last until I find the courage (and money) to go saddle
shopping again!
