"This is a great harness. I have used it for top-rope, lead, and gym climbing. No problems. It is comfortable on and off the rope. I have made some short hikes in between routes and I felt no discomfort. It is lightweight and the perfect addition to your gear bag. Buy this quality product!

Here is to many redpoints in your future. Happy climbing."

"This harness is really comfortable to just sit there and hang on the rope. That's the only good thing about it. The buckles at the leg loop tend to get rusty easily after wash. I have to put some WB-40 to the rusting spots. Hope it won't damage the fabric. It's heavy and pricey."
