Arcteryx Women Skaha harness -
1 year ago
Had a great time testing out this harness at the climbing gym. Pro: pretty lightweight, leg straps fit fairly well off the bat. Fit both my larger thighs and my other friends slim thighs fine. Fairly easy to unclip quickdraws. Cons: the waist strap feels a bit narrow, especially the strap to tighten the waist. But I’m more accustomed to mountaineering harnesses. The bungee cord like leg straps took a while to get used to. Some concern they’ll just snap like rubber bands. Depending on where the leg loops fall, they can cause some discomfort when being lowered.

Regtangle Body with Athletic Thighs - Gym Climber
1 year ago
Overall: Really liked fit; would recommend and that that color <3 Pros: Color, Fit, plastic loops Cons: Can't adjust the leg loops I mainly sport climb in the gym and am 5'4", 165lb. I am a looser size Medium or a tighter size Large. Body shape - rectangle (sadly no curves) with average sized "athletic" thighs. The harness I got is a size Large and fits like a tighter size Large in waist. Because of the elastic in the leg loops, no fit comments - conformed to leg size. I have a bad back (aging gracefully) and sometimes struggle with pressure points in a harness, either in the inner legs or hips/back. The waist belt fit my body like a glove - band wide enough to equally disperse weight while taking or supporting after a whipper (6 out of 5). Leg loops conformed to my body but might not be for everyone (4 out of 5) - I would pefer to be able to adjust the diameter of the leg loops.

great for gym, do not recommend for trad
1 year ago
Pros: This harness was great at the gym and cragging. Very lightweight, low profile, sleek, comfy and feels like nothing. Sizing was accurate. I got a size small based on my measurements. Cons: terrible for multipitch/trad climbing. I was doing a class 3 descent after a multipitch and the ties connecting the waist and leg loops unraveled. I was safe and wasn’t tied in to a rope, but it was scary knowing that it could’ve happened if I was climbing an off width or chimney. Also, it’s not the most comfortable on a hanging belay. I returned it after this happened and bought a more robust harness. Additionally, I had some ordering issues where I was sent the wrong size.
