This is a hard one because so often Marketeers like "comfort or light/racey". Tweener saddles are a tough sell.
I ride w/o shammy and use nylon + a smidgen of spandex drop crotch boxers. For 2016 REI finally offers them. In the winter I'll use standard non shammy compression baseware.
Don't discount female saddles. Then tend to have a wider seat area which is a good thing for touring.
