Verro is great.

By Ranked #610 - Men's Harnesses June 30, 2008

I think the Verro is great for all around use. I use the harness mostly for gym climbing a few hours at a time, and it feels great the whole session. This is my first harness, so I don't have much to compare it to besides the few that I tried on. First of all, my body type is a bit awkward, so it is hard to find a harness that fits well. I'm about 6'0 ft. with a 30 inch waist. I tried the Petzl Corax II and a few others, and I seemed to fall between sizes.

The Verro medium fits me well in the waist, and I can crank down the adjustable leg straps to fit my skinny legs as well. The Verro is very lightweight, and it's minimalist design speaks well for it's simplicity. The only downside is the directional use patches are sewn onto the inside of the waist strap. These little tags come with every harness and tell you how to use them properly (duh), but the Verro's are sewn onto the strap and must travel through the buckle, making it a bit clumsy to tighten. You can cut them out though, which is my next project.

Overall, this harness is great. Simple, lightweight, padded just enough for multiple hour sessions and great looking.
