Brooks Cambium C-17 $60 shipped CONUS

I bought this and rode it less than 100 miles. I was hoping it would feel like a waterproof B-17. It did not work out that way for me.

$60 shipped in US.

That's good to know. I was thinking about ordering one to try. Maybe the C-19 would work better?

Quite a while ago I picked up a C19 plastic, and I did not like it. Way to wide for me.

I have several B17s (leather of course), and two of the C17s that are not plastic (the gumby rubber version with blue jeans on top).
The C17 natural rubber and B17 leather feel different, and I like them both. I wanted the C17 for unfendered bikes - my trail bike and a fair weather road bike. The B17s are on my fendered bikes. I'm with the seller, the plastic C17 was .... not right for me.

ciao.
