I've never worn this harness myself, but I work at a climbing gym and this is the go-to harness for the ladies. We have the whole array of sizes at the gym and the sizing does tend to be on the small side, like others have mentioned. After that is sorted out though I've never heard any complaints. Even some of the smaller framed guys will turn a blind eye to the lavender color and opt for this harness instead of a BD Momentum. Buy it if you're a weekender or just getting into the sport.

I just picked this up for my girlfriend after using the rentals in the gym for the past couple months. For the money, you can't go wrong with this one. Fits good and is comfortable. It doesn't have the fancy adjustments of higher end models but for her it's been "set it and forget it" - She hasn't had to make any adjustments after getting the fit right the first climb. Good value harness and does what it's supposed to do.

I got this for practically nothing on Steep and Cheap. I'm not a hardcore climber so it functions well for what I need it for. I wear a size ten in pants and the size ten Primrose fits perfect around my legs and hips. However, I have no hips and am described by my friends as a twig. If this is not you, order at least a size up.

It's not the easiest to adjust, which isn't necessarily a bad thing; who wants a harness with straps that don't stay put? I found it comfortable. Simple.

It did its job, I am still alive. So there's that. For the price I paid, it was an excellent deal. Decent harness for not too much cash.

The most important thing before buying this harness is to find out which is the right size for you. If you buy a very small one then of course it will only fit around the small of your waist and will seem like a funky fit.

I tried a couple of sizes and the S fit me perfectly, I am 5'7'' and normally wear size 5 for pants. There is enough room to adjust.

The padding is very comfy, easy to fit. I personally like the double back style buckle for safety reasons (if you climb cracks it is safer in case it gets stuck on the rock wall because it won't go loose).

It is not as pretty looking as other brands, but it has more features such as the plastic covered waist loops which make it easier to hook or unhook anything while climbing, a double leg to waist length adjuster, etc.

Considering the lower price, this harness gives more for its value and I totally recommend it to any level of climbers.

I tried the harness on as soon as it arrived in the mail and was immediately disappointed in the fit. I am a size four 5'3'' woman, but I ordered a size six to allow room for adjustment, however, even with a bigger size there was no room for adjustment. It only fits around the small of my waist and not comfortably right above my hips where I like it. Also, when the waist is adjusted, the support behind the sacrum shifts off center on the back. It looks as if it should be made for a child. I would not recommend this harness to women.

Black Diamond Primrose AL Harness - Women's This harness has worked well Not for girls without hips but it has definitely worked for me. Tightening straps aren't as easy as I would like and I make sure to double check everything before I go up. But it is easy, light and cheap.

I bought this harness recently as a second resort... But end up loving it and I saved money. It's more comfortable than the other styles that they have and it looks very good.

I agree w/ some of the other reviews here - if you don't mind wearing a harness high over your waist, this is a good harness for a good price. If you prefer your harness a bit lower, look elsewhere or get a bigger size.

I've never had a problem with the way my Primrose fits me. It's always been comfy whether I'm walking around, climbing, hanging or being jerked while on lead belay.

I bought this harness for the price, it reasonable. But in all truth, its uncomfortable, it fits weird over my hips and pulls down in the front. It may just be me but the front of the harness seems to be short causing it to dig into my stomach.
