    REI Members get back an estimated $ 6.00 on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

    • NOW PLAYING

    Little tykes have you climbing the walls? Turn the tables on them with this Petzl Simba full body climbing harness made to fit 5 to 10 year olds.

    • Full-body design is necessary for small children because they do not have well-defined hips for a waistbelt to grab on to
    • Fully adjustable shoulder straps and leg loops to expand as your child grows
    • Petzle Simba climbing harness is built to accommodate kids up to 88 pounds (40kg)

    Climbing can be a dangerous sport if attempted without proper equipment and instruction. Use this product only with certified climbing ropes and equipment, under the supervision of a qualified instructor.

    Please note: Petzl products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

    Imported.

        Comments about Petzl Simba Climbing Harness - Kids':

        I used this to take my son on his first climbing trip. He's about 40 inches tall and weighs about 40 pounds and it fits him great, although I don't know if it would fit someone much smaller. He was comfortable all day and had a great time. Product is very well built and I had no reservations about sending him up the wall in this harness.

        Comments about Petzl Simba Climbing Harness - Kids':

        Our three year old uses this harness almost daily at our gym. We selected it because of the extra safety. Due to his size I think he would fall out of a standard kids harness. It fits great and he has never complained of it hurting. It is easy to use so easy in fact he can put it on himself. The excellent engineering is what you would expect from Petzl. Although, I don't know about fitting 10 year olds like it claims, and I would think anyone with a child over about five or six would look at a Black Diamond Wiz Kid style harness with padding for comfort. In fact the complete lack of padding is why I had to take off one star. I think if you added some comfort features to this thing it would be a perfect harness for small kids.

          We bought this harness for our 5 year old boy and it's been fantastic! Lately our 4 year girl has been using this harness as well and we haven't had the same problem as the previous reviewer. They climb in it for 2-3 hours at a time, and we've never heard a complaint out of either of our kids!

          While this harness is great on safety and ease of use, it seriously lacks in comfort and had to be returned. My 5 year old daughter informed me repeatedly, "Mommy, this harness is pinching my [*]" you get the idea.[...]We ended up with the Black Diamond Wiz Kid which my Wiz Kid loves.
