No saddle is comfortable when you're not wearing some form of padded shorts/underwear.
I think pads are uncomfortable and lots of people wear pads because it's the done thing!
I can't recommend my charge spoon enough, mine is five years old sees use most days in most weather and is still comfortable. I keep meaning to replace the spoon on my every day bike to my MTB and put a new one on my everyday bike.
The price makes spoons a no brainer.
All that said I suffer with prostratitis. The consultant says there is a chance that my cycling may aggravate it by aggravating the uretha. So I had been umming and ahhing about one of those split seats. But the price, the perhaps maybe nature of the causation and effectivness of the saddles puts me off.
