Optional Feature For Climbing Harnesses

An optional feature for Climbing Harnesses is a belay loop. This sewn loop connecting your waist and leg loops makes clipping into anchors a snap, whether you're anchoring into cold shuts at the top of a sport climb or trying to put your partner on belay while wearing thick mittens. The belay loop is not meant to be used as a tie-in point for your climbing rope because it creates a high center of gravity. Always tie in by threading the rope through both your leg and waist loops.
