• DoubleBack buckles on leg loops easily adjust for different-sized climbers or clothing thicknesses

Customer Reviews for the Calidris Petzl Harness

Mauro - June 4, 2009

most-padded and comfortable harness
The Calidris harness is by far the best . #Fit=I'm a smaller guy and the fit is absolutely incredible. #Comfort=This harness is probably the most comfortable harness that i have put on. Harnesses that you feel with every movement just plain suck. #Price=Its very expensive but is worth every bit of it. Don't let the price stop you from buying this harness. #Features=The main features are the buckles. Not having to double back yourself creates a harness that is ten time safer than a normal harness. Plus it is much quicker and easier to put on than traditional harnesses. #Overall=Wonderful harness that gives you a lot of control and comfort. I highly recommend it. Mauro

Super comfortable, slightly large
This harness is super comfortable. I work at a climbing gym and a ropes course. I am constantly hanging for 1 to 3 hours at a time. This harness is awesome. No bruises, and very very rarely do my feet even go to sleep (only when I am sitting off balance screwing in a suborn hold). My only problem is that I am a small guy. I have to tighten down my size 1 all the way down to get a real tight fit. I only get it this tight when I know that I'll be setting overhang or such, but when I do I am pushing the limits of how tight it can possibly get. This also leaves a large amount of tail on both sides, but it tucks away nicely. Also the front gear loops could point out a bit more. They are almost straight down so it is harder to clip things onto them. Otherwise this is a great harness.
