Nice, But Small

Overall it seems like a well designed harness, but the L is smaller than other mammut harnesses (i.e. comfort). I bought this for ice climbing and it doesn't fit over my winter layers without the belay loops being well behind my back. It will work well for a travel rock/gym harness though.

2 Years On And Going Strong

First off, the durability for what I have been doing has been great. I mostly have only done sport climbing and the like. I did some arborist stuff for a neighbor with it when it was all I had, and now it is stained with white pine sap. For the two years I had it, I've done maybe 8+ trips around the Us and Europe, so maybe something like 300ish cycles of tying in and whipping. With that, there has been almost no visible wear and no indication of it running out of life. I personally went with the one with more gear loops for the versatility and nothing else really. This and the Sender are, in my opinion, the lightest and most flexible harnesses on the market and, for the price, unbeatable. This has been the case for whatever alternatives I could find; anything similar was for some reason more expensive, a significant margin. TLDR: I will buy this again, and it's 100% been worth it.

Phenomenal Light Weight Harness

I bought this instead of the sender light to have 4 gear loops although I primarily use it for sport climbing. I’ve used it extensively indoors and out and it’s held up very well despite its thin construction. The harness is surprisingly comfortable given the construction and is fine for projecting sport routes for me with minimal discomfort (after around 45 min - 1 hour start to notice). I wouldn’t take it on any large big walls where you’ll be hanging for several hours on a day but works very well for belaying on the ground and hanging on projects.

Comfortable & Versatile

Used for both rock & ice/mixed climbing, indoor and outdoor. Tons of options for racking between the gear loops and the wide variety of clipper spots.

My New Favorite Alpine Harness

This harness is comfortable for a full day in the alpine. I spent 16+ hours wearing this harness scrambling, alpine trad climbing, rappelling, and doing some sketchy snow crossings. While a bit heavier than some of the Petzl options it’s 100% worth it for the comfort.

Great Lightweight Harness

This harness is a great lightweight harness. the bigger loops in the front really accommodate all the gear I want. the only downside is that all day use is somewhat uncomfortable as the thin waste band digs into your waist.

I bought this harness because I wanted a low weight, compact harness for mountain guiding and glacier travel. It worked perfectly and was super comfortable to wear while traversing the glacier even with my backpack on. Also, in general it is a really comfortable harness to wear for top rope and gym lead. I haven't used it for sport or trad yet, but I'll update when I have.

Amazing, Versatile Lightweight Harness

I originally got this harness for ice climbing as it has 6 different ice tool clipper spots (on both sides, 12 total) of the waist. This allowed me to put my ice tool clippers exactly where I wanted them versus where they have to be on other harnesses. It is very lightweight with functional gear loops. I recently took it alpine climbing and it felt awesome having it on all day, even through the more scrambly areas of the climb. Would highly recommend especially for women that have a bigger chest or hips and need to put ice tool clippers in specific spots in order to see them. I have a Large which works great with winter layers but I could have also fit a medium. I am 5'6" and 170 lbs.

Superlight weight if thats what you are going for; its so light it almost seems not as hearty as other harnesses; especially for hauling lots of cams. I would size up if you are female; legs are not adjustable

Surprisingly Comfy

Somehow this harness has less padding and is lighter weight than the Ophir slide or the black diamond momentum harness, but is actually more comfortable when sitting in it for a long time. I'd highly recommend if you have a bit more money to throw in for a harness that you want to be lightweight and still comfy. Fits true to size.

Amazin harness which is surprisingly comfortable and does not consume any space in the backpack. I am using it for trad climbing. I climb with 14 cams, 12 slings, and three sets of nuts/tricams. I also carry cordlette, belay device and bunch of lockers. All these can be comfortably clipped to the harness. The front gear loops are bigger and the gear is easy to unclip/clip. I use the front gear loops for cams and draws. The rear loops I use for nuts, lockers and belay devices. The harness has also a small gear loop at the rear in the middle. I use this for the nut tool and sometimes the radio. The harness feels good on my body and I don't even feel it while climbing. The only little thing I found is the seem in front without any padding pushing against my bones. I did not experience it with my previous harness ocun Ego. Anyway, it is not too annoying and I might get used to it very soon.
