"Overall a great harness, but when it's not on your body the legs loops get tangled easily and it can be a pain to untangle them."

"My Misty Mountain harness broke in less than a year (the quick disconnect on the left leg loop). Fortunately, I bought it at REI, and they exchanged it (it was still like new) for the Focus. It is a very well-built harness for the money. It looks as if this will give me years of service."

"Bought in Fall 2006 to replace my old Petzl Dionysis Harness and I've been very happy. It's a hard act to follow the more expensive and widely popular Dionysis and the Focus pulled it off with an amazing price tag and comfort. It is quick & easy to put on except hooking the buttstraps, after the harness was on, took some getting used to."

"My old Misty Mountain harness got stolen so I went to REI and got this one. Besides looking sweet, it works really well. It is very adjustable and durable. I do mostly toprope climbing with some lead, but this harness does its job really well and for a great price. Oh yeah, and did I say it looks awesome."

"Purchased in the fall of 2005 used for lead climbing and some toproping just to break it in for its intended use as my primary ice climbing harness. Fit comfortably out of the box, holds gear very well, and shows no sign of wear, well constructed, top notch! Now that spring has arrived and I'm climbing rock again I still find myself packing this harness and leaving my much more expensive other brand in the closet."
