Recommendations for a Harness

Recommended Posts

I'll be in the market for a new tree harness soon, and am looking for recommendations. I plan on using a climber, and all I ever used was the old one that came with the Summit climbers 10 years ago or so. That one never made the move from Illinois, so I'm looking for a replacement, I'm sure there are better/easier to use harnesses out there. Any recommendations?

Okay, dumb question, but how does this compare to a harness with shoulder straps that attaches up higher. I can just see myself hanging upside down in that thing :)

You wont hang upside down in  RC harness. I'll never go back to an over the shoulder harness for sitting in a stand. I might buy the muddy harness that has the belay loops on the hips for a linesman belt when hanging new sets.

It doesn’t have them, and you won’t fall upside down. You’ll end up facing the tree. And you can use your pockets, your hood, change layers etc. you will never go back to a vest or harness. You may miss having rain run down your tether and into your underpants, I’m not sure what you’re into
