These full harnesses ares recommended for all except the lightest loads, for which a simple waist-only harness is available.
We are told they are probably the most comfortable harnesses available!
- dual density foam within hardwearing Nylon cover
- adjustable shoulder, chest and back straps
- same harness can be used for training and for your expedition.
- available in very small, small, medium, large and very large sizes.
- Weight: 485 grms (1.1 lbs) for large size
The two types have attachment points as shown,
In use, you may find it more comfortable to loosen the waist belt while hauling on the level. You can only do this with a full harness though, as a waist-only harness would fall down!
Sizes
As a general rule, the following body waist measurements apply (wearing minimal clothing). If however, you fall outside these, please supply waist and height details and we will make for you at no extra cost.
Waist
Very small 69 – 80 cms (27 – 31 ins)
Small 81 – 89 cms (31.5 – 35 ins)
medium 92 – 104 cms (36 – 41 ins)
large 107 – 117 cms (42 – 46 ins)
very large 118 + cma (47 + ins)
In practice, sizes overlap one another to a small extent. If in doubt, go for larger size rather than smaller.
Bear in mind that you may feel more comfortable wearing your harness slightly lower than the waist, possibly nearer your hips. The sizes above allow for thermal and shell layers.
