Ranked #120 - Men's Harnesses
May 1, 2011
This harness is great for doing anything you want. I am so glad it was on sale when I went shopping for my first harness because it works great for gym/rock/ice/you name it. There might be more comfortable/lighter/whatever else harnesses out there, but this has more than $60 dollars worth of all those things in my opinion.
The buckles are worth it for safety factor alone, but it really is very convenient, and great when your partner says "doubled back? oh..." and then looks at their own harness sadly. The adjustable leg loops allow lots of warm clothes, and the four gear loops are there in case you need to rack more than just quick draws. The rear straps are quick release, so don't turn down that chili the night before your climb, and the rear haul loop is full strength (12 kN). There's enough padding to hang for a little while, and the quality seems to be what you'd expect from BD. I'll be sure to come back and rant if it falls apart too soon.
The absolute best part of this harness, however, is the crazy camo color it's offered in. It's one of like 3 harness that isn't some neutral, simple color, or black. Good for Black Diamond, I'd probably give it 5 stars for that alone.
