I loved this harness. It is super light weight and minimal, all the bulk is cut down but it still feels secure and super sturdy. Its a stand out against all other harnesses I have used in the past with very modern design. It is incredibly packable, and though I have only used it in the gym, I am stoked to bring it out in the wild.
I’ve been on the hunt for a harness that wouldn’t weigh down my pack on long approaches, and the Lithos SL was exactly what I was looking for. Took it to the gym first to get a feel for it, and now I’m excited to take it outside and get on some walls! My old harness was pretty chunky - I’d always have to shuffle it around to fit in my bag. This one is way lighter and more minimal. It has its main adjustment feature around the waist and thinner strappings which makes it feel pretty weightless, but still very safe and secure. Really happy with this one!
