Brooks has clearly established itself as the finest bike saddle company in the world and it sure looks like they want to keep it that way. In recent years we have seen several interesting limited edition versions of their iconic saddles, including a collaboration with Stussy. Here we show you now their new limited edition city colored saddles. As part of their celebration of various courier and bicycle polo events worldwide, Brooks has issued a set of limited edition colored saddles for their Swift and Team Pro models in runs of 250 units. Events in Boston, London, Seattle, Philadelphia, and Berlin are celebrated in blue, mustard, red, and mandarin orange.

Stussy Japan has uploaded a feature that has some great behind the scenes shots of the creation process in the Brooks factory of their upcoming Stussy collaboration saddle, that was designed by the Wilson Brothers.

Check it out here.

A couple of weeks we first showed you the Stussy x Brooks Saddle, made by the Wilson Brothers for Stussy. Here is now a look at the final product. The saddle will be released in Japan on 8th of November. At this point we are not sure, when and if it will release outside of Japan. Let’s hope it does!

An interesting project is coming from the Wilson Brothers and Brooks. Brooks is one of the most famous quality bike saddler makers and known for their high quality standards. The Wilson Brothers have made some impressive bikes in recent years, so the partnership only made sense. Together with Brooks they produced a saddle for Stussy. It looks like it will be coming in white leather. Via Paul Mittleman.

More on this project, once we get closer to the release. An image of the packaging follows after the jump.

Brooks England announces collaboration with the New York City Bicycle Film Festival with the release of a limited edition Swallow.  Only one hundred special Swallow models, manufactured with British racing green leather and each bearing an authentic serial number of authenticity, will be available to the public.  Proceeds from sales will benefit the 8th annual Bicycle Film Festival which runs from May 28th through June 1st.
BFF Limited Edition Green Swallow features the original steel metalwork and bares a tensioning plate on the underside of the saddle which still features the original patenting information. The Swallow retains the word DEPOSÉ, meaning REGISTERED in French, on its tensioning plate. This was added, originally, as many of the saddles were exported to the continent for the use of racers and tourers alike.

The first Swallow was patented on August 20th 1936, a time when all Tour de France riders used Brooks saddles. Legends such as Girardengo, Bottecchia, Bartali, Coppi and Anquetil all rode Brooks saddles to victory and the coveted yellow jersey. Back then the arrival of the handcrafted Swallow was heralded as revolutionary as it was the first ‘cut away’ saddle design, giving greater freedom of leg movement to the sportive cyclist.

The 100 BFF Limited Edition Green Swallows retail for 250 $ and are sold exclusively in cooperation with the BFF in NY during the festival.
