Stitches come apart in 4 months

By Gingerela Ranked #166 - Harnesses and Climbing Helmets August 12, 2010

This was my first harness. I'm 5ft 4, 120 lb and I used a size S harness for indoor and outdoor top roping and sports climbing. I find this harness fit fine on small Asian female waist and the leg loop comfortable. The length of belay loop is adequate for female. (Mammut tends to run a bit on the short side comparing to BD Primrose.) This is indeed the most popular female harness in NYC metro area. Within 4 month of purchasing this harness I climbed on average one evening a week in the gym plus in totality two trips to the Gunks on top rope. I noticed that by the end of 4th month the stitches at the waist seam came apart. As a result it is retired and I will send it back to EMS / BD for replacement.
