Does anyone have any experience with a Kontour seat?  How does it compare with a Russell Day Long?

No personal experience , however , I have read the material they use sticks to your pants , so , you are unable to slide around  , change your position in the saddle .

This is what I do for  opinions , read these

I think the bigger question to ask is if they are willing to work on our seats at all.

I looked into these guys as well.  The price is on par with Russell, but with Russell I could send my seat by Canada Post which was much cheaper than UPS or Fed-Ex.  Also, customer service with Russell is second to none.  I was not to thrilled with the seat cover.  It looked like it would be hard to keep clean.

Thank you all for the input.  It looks like the Russell Day Long is the way to go.

I had my rocket 3 seat done by Kontour years ago. I really liked it. Lots of good air flow in the summer.
 High quality materials. Those guys used to make seats for aircraft!
