Arc'teryx R320a Harness

Arc'teryx R320a Harness 4 5 1 1

Surprisingly comfy superlight all-round climbing harness Despite thinking 'there's no padding!' when you first see this harness, the Warp technology used in its construction means that it is quite comfortable, even when falling off. Not quite up to the standards of more padded harnesses (I did get a few bruises on my hips afer falling off a lot), but the weight saving makes up for this and means it can be easily used for alpine climbing as well. The gear loops are ok, and can be re-adjusted, but it would have been good to have a second retaining loop for the excess waist strap material. Otherwise, one of the best lightweight 'do anything' harnesses out there. 29 May 2012

The most comfortable fully adjustable all around rock climbing harness available. New, wider Warp Strength Technology? (WST?) swami belt and fully-adjustable conical leg loops provide supple comfort while hanging on the wall or belaying. A stronger tie-in point adds more strength to a critical area of the harness.
