Ultralight harness for high-end climbing

This is the Petzl Hirundos, a high-end harness with Frame Construction technology. This means it has high strength bias tape along the edges of the waist belt and leg loops, providing extra strength and support. The pressure is distributed over the entire area between the tape, making for a harness that is extremely comfortable and well ventilated.  The Hirundos is an ultralight and super compact harness for maximum climbing performance. Four gear loops won't limit this harness to short sport climbs.

  • Frame Construction with breathable monofilament mesh evenly distributes pressure, providing maximum support and comfort
  • Woven polyester mesh on the inside of the harness wicks moisture for improved comfort and speeds drying in wet conditions
  • Perforated closed cell foam on leg loops increases breathability
  • DoubleBack buckles are pre-threaded and adjust quickly with a single pull, helping to ensure proper closure
  • Green belay loop helps users identify proper tie-in / attachment point
  • Reinforced tie-in points for increased durability in this high-wear area
  • Elasticized leg loops have a large range of expansion for correct fit, while staying in place on the thighs
  • Rigid, inclined 3D front gear loops for easy access to gear; flexible rear loops stay out of the way while wearing a pack.
  • Detachable elastic leg loop straps

This harness is absolutley amazing. If you want a high end sport climbing harness or any kind of harness for that matter then get this harness. The weight is amazing, It feels you aren't even wearing it

This is a really comfortable harness; whether taking falls, belaying or just mooching around. I have a pretty thin and wiry body type (28'' waist) and the small size is perfect for me. The simplicity of just stepping in and pulling on one auto-locking buckle is really nice. That said though, if you have quite big thighs the leg loops might feel tight.

I bought this harness for a sport climbing trip this summer and haven't been disapointed. The lack of adjustable leg loops hasn't bothered me (but I've got pipecleaner legs so thunder thighs may need to try first). It is super comfortable, big lead falls and belaying mates 5 stone heavier than me is no problem, it;s light weight and lack of sofa style padding make it really good to climb in. The gear loops are big enough for a single pitch trad rack but it is a bit of a squeeze and the crabs can be difficult to seperate, that said it is a sports climbing harness and does that super well. N.B. I'm 5'10 with 29" waist and small fits me really well.

I bought this harness nearly a year ago and I have to say it is absolutely excellent. It's very comfortable (even when I've been climbing for 5+ hours) and it is so light-weight that it's easy to forget I am wearing it. This harness may not be for everyone as some people like something a bit more bulky and substantial. Personally I think the only negative effect of it's 'skimpiness' is that it took me a few weeks to trust the harness not to break if I fell, but having used it for the last 11 months and fallen many times I trust it completely. My main reason for buying this harness is its simplicity. Only having one strap to tighten means less time is spent faffing with buckles and more time climbing! For anyone wanting a harness that is lightweight and simple to use I highly recommend the Petzl Hirundos!
