Bought to save ounces on Rainier but it soon became my gym and cragging harness. Went through an advanced rescue course in which I hung in it for hours, gnarly alpine granite climbs that tear harnesses apart in dirty chimneys, and a day-long falling clinic, outdoors, in which I took probably 50 falls in this thing. I still trust it as much as when I got it. 4 gear loops, a real belay loop with anti-crossloading slot and adjustable leg loops. Less bulk than your buddies fumbling with Alpine Bods. Issues: I do have to shift my weight a lot at hanging belays. The rear gear loops are not coated in plastic & hard to clip. Good for your never-use items like pulleys, knife, bail-biners, etc on.
This harness is perfect for gym and sport climbing. It definitely will not hold up to much abuse, though. I got this on sale to replace my old Petzl Adjama harness, and I think I would have rather have bought another Adjama, though. The Camp harness feels fine for a few falls but take a couple of whips in a row and it will start to dig into your skin, especially if you're shirtless. I would sacrifice another few grams to get just a little padding, or a different material. The Adjama has the same light-weight, mesh approach but it much more comfortable, although the Camp harness matches my cute green sports bra.
