Black Diamond is the standard in rock climbing equipment. The harness is lightweight and fairly comfortable. The leg straps seem a little chinsy but I did like the fact that t…

I pulled this out of the box and was amazed at how small and light it was, at first i thought it was gonna be painful. Not at all, i use this harness everywhere. it feels like…

If you want to climb and not feel a big padded jock strap riding your tail this is the one . The harness allows for the freedom that is necessary for technical climbing and co…

I am 5'10'' and 155 lbs. The size M fits perfect (My thighs are 21'' and waist 31''). Worked really well in El Potrero Chicko for 8 days of intensive climbing. Comfortable in…

It's harness is everything it's cut out to be, it's Arcteryx after all so it should be expected to be the best and it is. Beware of the sizing though especially ordering from…

Was talked down to this harness by those in the know, as this is my first. (I wanted a fancy out-of-my-league Arc'teryx) Nice and comfy while resting. Belt clasp needs to be d…

I bought this harness because I was expecting it to be more comfortable than my current momentum AL. I am getting into multi-pitch sport climbs and I set routes in the gym. I…

This harness is awesome! I have been using it for winter mountaineering and ice climbing lately but also sport and multi pitch trad routes. It has 4 slots for ice clippers for…

It's super light and I almost can't feel it on... The straps stay put and don't ride up (I'm small with small legs) and it folds down very small. It's amazing how comfortab…

Great harness and super stylish. It packs down incredibly small but is still totally comfortable. Same quality as other Arcteryx harness' just a little stripped down. Great fo…

Amazing harness. Broke it out at the New this weekend and was a champ. Racked some quickdraws easily and the gear loops were solid. As far as the comfort level was, my nads…

It feels like nothing at all, but is comfortable to both hang in and fall in. Gear loops are solid and easy to rack. The tie points are preformed and have built in wear indica…

This is a great alpine harness. The leg loops release for easy gear-up over layers and it's so light-weight you don't realize you're wearing it. If you're wearing this for s…

This harness is amazing. I bought mine a few years back and never had to/wanted to replace it. sometimes, just for fun, i sleep in it while hanging in a tree. its comfortable…

I've had this harness for about a year now, and can say its the second most comfortable I have ever put on (first is an Arcteryx that costs your first born). It conforms to yo…

The Focus harness is amazing! This one is the best product for the purchase price. It is so comfortable to wear as well as hang in. On my last outing I hung there snapping pic…

Harnesses comfort is a very fickle thing, but I found this harness to be super comfortable thus far. I know some avid climbers might not like the leg straps since they are on…

I first climbed when I was a little kid, but then stopped. Just recently got way into it with a group of friends and didn't want to keep renting the harnesses they had at one…

I've been using the harness for a couple years, and it is leaps and bounds better than the loaners I had resorted to before. When I sport climb, it's got more than enough gear…

Great harness if you are just starting out and want that plenty of extra stuff to grow into..…

I use this as my all around sport climbing harness. I love that the waist band has two buckles on either side of the belay loop because it helps me keep everything centered wh…

I just bought this harness and I think that it is awesome. It has tons of great features, some that are easily recognized: like the adjustable leg loops and ice clipper slots…

Great harness. Used for 3 years now and still cranking. Great up in the alpine or trad climbing. Great design, with the leg elastic supporters able to unclip when needing to t…

The harness is as comfortable as they come. Don’t get turned away by the size of the waist belt, it is uber-cushy and yet it doesn’t inhibit my climbing at all. If you end…

this is one of the best universal harnesses i've come across.... after months of searching and coming up with nothing, i came across this.. and for about fifty bucks too! thi…

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 thin…

Out of the 4 harnesses I have tried this is my favorite by far. It is comfortable for walking around and while hanging in it. The entire thing is load rated even the gear loop…

So far I have been very pleased with this harness. It's comfortable enough to double as a chair...I don't even notice that I'm wearing it when I'm hanging off the wall trying…

I could jump all day in this harness. No worries when tied off and hanging. Leg comfort and hip comfort (big deal for those of us with boney hips) are premium. When using it o…

By far the hardest working caving harness on the market. The low attachment point means that you've got maximum grab on each step up when climbing ropes with a Petzl Croll. Th…

Low attachment point gives you the most rang of movement. The is very comfortable for a non-padded harness. It packs well into most traditional cave packs and isn't very hea…
