I just received this harness today and it seems a little odd. Compared with the leg straps (or even with my old Petzl Corax harness), the ends of the webbing for the waist-harness are folded over and sewn in the wrong direction. Shouldn't they be pointed out so that they can catch on the elastic keeper and outside of the buckle? Can anyone help?

Alan, just checked my Corax, and they are sewn the same way. I think this is on purpose so that the webbing will lay flat once under the elastic. I never thought about it, but seems to be the way it's designed. It's never given me any trouble, and is a very comfortable, sturdy harness! Enjoy
