"Next level" - Review of Arc'teryx R320 Rock Climbing Harness - Men's

I had the fortune to get my hands on the R320 last Rocktober,and put quite a few sport and trad pitches on it. The obvious question: Is it comfortable? Answer: equal to my old Vapor, but with even less bulk. The Arc'teryx designers have innovated again, and left the other harness companies behind. The weight distribution is what makes this harness work. Other harnesses use padding to minimize pressure points, whereas the R320 uses the structural webbing, spread edge to edge in the leg and waist, to alleviate pressure points all together. I could barely tell I was wearing a harness until I came to a stop after pitching, and not landing on the ground. Gear racks are low-profile,and you can change racking direction to tend forward or back. And the face fabric is super tough Schoeller. Go get those offwidths! Coolest thing in climbing gear this season, for sure. How old is your harness?
