Description

Reduce until it's just enough.

The Arc'teryx S220 LT Harness takes minimalism to a whole new level by giving you all the features you need at a scant 220 grams. A woven fabric replaces traditional waist-belt construction while increasing comfort at the same time. Arc'teryx also used a perforated fabric for the leg loops, so they're more comfortable to walk in and don't interfere with breathability.
  • Woven waist-belt for low weight and better comfort
  • Perforated leg loops allow complete breathability and reduce weight
  • Quick-adjust buckles for a fast and secure fit

This is the first harness I ever purchased (I previously just rented them from the rock gym) and I love it! Its so light and it fits just how i needed it to. The leg loops fit snug and don't ride up or rack your crotch when you fall. The only bummer is that there is only 2 gear loops.

If you're looking for a lightweight harness with more gear loops the R-275LT is a great choice.

okay, so this harness is SUPER light, and super compact, i use it for sport climbing and it has been great, but be sure you get the right size. try it on, make sure it fits right!! if it doesnt send it back and get a different size or a different harness. i mean not every harness is going to fit every person just right! it also took a few climbs for the foam or whatever to become comfy! but its an amazing harness for guym/sport or anything where you are only hanging in your harness for a short amount of time!

I have purchased several Arc'teryx harnesses,...

I have purchased several Arc'teryx harnesses, basing my size choice (Med) on the manufacturer's chart provided. The legs fit fine, but none of the waist belts ends met, in the front. I'm lean with no "gut" so I don't understand. The fit video at Arc'teryx says the two ends of the waist belt should meet, and can even overlap. What's up? If I go to a Large, the legs will be way to big. Anyone else find this problem?

I've seen people struggle with this kind of fit issue.
Arc'teryx harnesses do seem to have a love-it or hate-it fit...and some people just aren't shaped the same way as the harness manufactures' mannequins ;-).
I might suggest you try a harness with adjustable leg loops. That way you can better dial in the fit. It will also be a more versatile harness overall.

Bought this harness to replace my current gym harness that had begun to show signs of wear. The first time weighted it the leg loops began to cut into my legs. I then let a few of my friends try it out and they were all not pleased with the comfort. It is super light which is nice, but for my use as a gym harness i'd prefer some comfort.

Love the harness! Super light weight and comfortable. Can take falls sport climbing all day with no discomfort. Only downside is the lack of a haul loop, not a deal breaker though. Awesome colors aswell!

Blarf!

I love almost everything arcteryx, but this harness is way off the mark for me.

A: Yes. Size up. I'm a medium in everything arcteryx (including their harnesses) and the medium is too small for me.
B: Arcteryx shaved a lot of weight off of this thing. Major casualties include two gear loops and the absence of a a chalk bag loop ... which is more than mildly irritating. I know this is designed to be outrageously light, but arcteryx used a silly piece of fabric across one of the leg loops for the sole purpose of putting their logo in it ... this could have easily be eliminated in favor of a chalk bag loop. This is almost a deal breaker for me. Perhaps that's silly. But adding another belt across your stomach for a chalk bag is just another thing and adds a "lot" of weight.

If you get the right size though ... the harness is very comfortable, very light, and very breathable.

Not for me though.

First off, that's not a chalk bag loop you're used to, it's a haul loop.

Second, climbing your chalk bag to your harness is dead giveaway that you've never climbed a chimney or an OW. Red flag when picking a random partner in the Valley: chalk bag clipped to their "chalk bag loop"

I'm familiar with the function of a haul loop. In my experience, Arcteryx's haul loops are barely that. Unlike other brands that have rated haul loops, arcteryx's (the one's I've seen) wouldn't stand up to even light use. I think you'd shred through them in a heartbeat on off width if anything was attched to it. So, for arcteryx, the haul loop is a chalk bag loop in my opinion. If I'm hauling with arcteryx I just clip/ tie into belay/front tie-in... Doesn't bother me. All my harnesses are arcteryx.

Clipping chalk at to your haul loop doesn't mean you haven't climbed off width. Ugh, nothing worse than approaching boulderers that arent wearing helmets and harnesses; total redflag that they've clearly never done an apline climb,right? Those sad sacks aren't fit to even look at a rope.

The sizing chart on Arc'teryx' website states that a Medium will fit 31" - 34.5" waists, and that the ideal fit is with a one inch overlap in the ends of the waist belt. Well, my waist is 32.5" around, and a medium barely fits on me with a two inch GAP between the ends of the waist belt.

I suppose I'll be exchanging this for a large before I get a chance to climb in one, since I'm not about to climb with two inches of 1/2" webbing digging into my waist.. Good news is it looks great and is SUPER light. I look forward to getting the right size!

This harness is so light and packs so small I sometimes have to double check that I actually brought it with me when I'm heading out. It is super flat which I like as it sits nicely over my clothes and under my jackets and personally I love the bright colors. The leg loops are very minimalistic and I certainly wouldn't want to dog in this thing for hours or belay the super proj, but for quick burns on the climbs I'm interested in. This was the ticket. This was a replacement for my Hirundos which is officially hitting the old folks home and retiring.

Hi Arthur,

I see you've climbed with Hirundos before, and now have this harness. My hirundos is ready fo replacement as well, after a long time of great service. So I wondered:
How do the size of the S220LT and the hirundos compare? Could I get the same size?
And I like the fact the the hirundos stays low on my waist as I climb and as I belay. Does the S220LT do this as well, or does it crawl up and then dig into the ribs, like many others do?
Then the last thing, which might be related to the previous, but still... are the sizes of the belay loops comparable between the two?

Well, a lot of questions, but I hope you don't mind answering them. It would be very helpful for me!

Thanks a lot in advance,
rachel
