"Fit is perfect, as described. The design is sleek. Comfortable! The color is exactly what I was hoping for, feminine but not over the top. Belt works seamlessly. Really nice to not have to adjust leg loops, they just fit so well! Not too snug but not loose. Babsi’s signature is a bonus! Highly recommend."
"Love the color, even though is much lless vibrant than shown in the pictures. It's really comfortable and I haven't tested them on rock yet but for sport climbing it's superb."
"Followed correct measurements & the harness wont sit on the waist correctly & it was loose"
"The harness is very comfortable, it exceeded my expectations!"
"The harness is awesome. Love the color, love the flexibility and the quality. The only thing that could be better is the back strap that could have a better latching mechanism. Right now it's a hook that sometimes comes off when you put the harness in and out of a bag. A more sturdy locking mechanism would be much better. Thanks!"
"Love this harness! I’m right between a medium and large so I got a medium and the leg loops fit snuggly, which is great since they don’t adjust. Very comfy"
"I've used this now for multiple gym sessions and a 3 day outdoor trip, and it has been comfortable and breathable. No complaints!"
"overall comfortable but I wish the color was more vivid and that leg loops felt more soft."
"I like it a lot!"
"This harness is able to withstand a boat load of carrying and falling. The only complaint my girlfriend had about it is that the color within the photos is slightly more vibrant than in real life, so keep that in mind."
