This is not something you should be asking other people about. To me, one of those saddles is supremely comfortable, and the other is insanely uncomfortable. It is up to you to decide which is which.

C17 is my favorite saddle for my more relaxed geo bikes.
That being said I’ve never tried any leather Brooks saddles

Don’t have a C17, but I have a B17 and a C15.
I much prefer the C15, especially as it’s on my all-weather commuter where using a leather saddle would be a bit of a pain.

This should be between you and your butt, but the C17 looks way more at home on that build.
visually c17 but like the most ppl already said, try and look what feels better, even tho i think your ass can get used to everything 😉

I could ride a b17 a million miles chamoisless but can’t get comfortable on the c17. I still run it on a bike because it looks good. Do with that info what you will.

Yes.
Edit: I have and enjoy both. General gravel? C17. Multi day touring? B17. Granted my C17 is on my “townie” cruiser bike.
