Review 5 out of 5 stars

Review by: tgreene, 2004-04-20


Fits like a glove, and comfortable enough that you actually forget you're wearing it! Definitely worth the added investment!

My main harness... The 6 gearloops are great for those who rack on thier harness like I do. Wide back and cushy leg loops make for a very comfortable harness.

The cadallaic can be a bit intimidating due to the price. It can run as much as double some of the other decent harness out there. On a solid recommendation from my local climbing gym I bit the bullet on cost and I've never looked back.

I suppose the titan would be even more comfy for long days on the wall, but my cady feels like dropping in a lazy boy when it's adjusted just right. When it's not "just right" it's still fairly cozy, but fine tuning really helps - or at least it made a big difference with my insanely thick thighs. The key: learn to adjust the tilt of the leg loops using the rear straps - it helps a lot.

I love the adjustability range. I had to go with a large just to accomidate my thight, but the waiste is so adjustable it left me in good hands there. My thighs are about as big around as my wasit so harness shoping was difficult.

Compared to the other harnesses I tried, it was a whole new level of comfort and the ample gear loops leave you spoiled.

The harness does fit best if you have the leg loops higher up than on other harnesses, but that doesn't make it any more uncomfortable.

I do wish the leg riser straps were adjustable though otherwise I'd be giving it a 5.

Pros: Wide back and leg loops provide noticeable comfort that is addicting. 6 gear loops provide ample opportunities to store an enormous amount of rack and additional items. Dual front buckles keep the tie-in point centered as well as the waist belt. Warm fleece lining. Durable and easy-to-use leg loop adjuster (this is the straps connected to the back of the leg loops used to adjust it's height and in place). Leg loops can be dropped for relief.

Cons: thin belay loop. can't adjust risers as in the Metolius Contour harnesses. Restricts high step movements depending where you place the leg loops on your leg. The higher the better.

A harness for big wall and trad climbers because it provides comfort and ample gear storage.

Super comfy even when hanging all day. 6 gear loops, haul loop, what more can you ask for. An absolute must more long trad climbs or when you're carrying a large rack on the gear loops.
