this is my second harness. my first was an Arc'Teryx fitted vapor that I loved until it didn't fit anymore. I received a gift certificate to BDEL for christmas and saw this harness in one of the catalogues. I climbed with it the day after it arrived and loved it. it fit me much better not to mention its comfortable- even to my Arc'Teryx with the ton of padding. I almost forgot I had it on while I was climbing. its been a couple of months since then and its still holding up great.
