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…

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…

Great light helmet. Fits nicely for a large head. Good even pressure restraint system. looking forward to dawning this for hours with the BD Storm light which fits on it like…

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…

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…

I had it on all day and literally forgot I was wearing it. It's super light, has very low clearance over the top of my dome, and has great air circulation. The adjustments s…

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…

The previous review pretty well covers what you can expect from this pack. Yes it’s light – well that pretty much covers the good points. When going light weight there i…

If you are looking for a durable expensive sack to put your gear in hear it is. Uli Steck, this inspiration behind this pack, is an awesome climber... but I am questioning his…

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…

This is a great helmet for just about everything! I picked one up at a garage sale in Moab last year, and have used it heavily ever since. It is easy to adjust, fits snugly, a…

This is a pretty solid helmet. In cold weather it adjusts well over a skull cap and is plenty warm with the vents closed. Headlamp use is easy. It's difficult to adjust one ha…

The construction of this pack is so lightweight that it almost seems unreal. Everything from the webbing straps to the material that makes the body of the pack is surprisingly…
