Climbing Harnesses

Secure your ascent with a climbing harness that delivers uncompromising safety and performance. As a critical connection to your rope, the right harness provides the confidence you need to push your limits, whether you're on rock or at the climbing wall.

A precise fit is paramount for both safety and freedom of movement. Harnesses with adjustable belts and leg loops allow you to tailor the fit to your body and adapt to different clothing layers for year-round climbing. The design focuses on distributing your weight effectively, offering support when you need it most. Key features include reinforced tie-in points for lasting resilience and multiple gear loops to keep your quickdraws, cams, and other protection organised and accessible.

Find the perfect rock climbing harness for your discipline. Choose a lightweight, streamlined sport climbing harness for quick redpoints, or a more substantial trad climbing harness with ample gear loops for long multi-pitch routes. We stock options for men, women, and children, ensuring every climber can find a reliable and adaptable harness for their next vertical challenge.

The lifespan of a climbing harness depends on usage and storage:

 

  • Unused and properly stored: Up to 10 years.
  • Occasional use (once a month): Around 5 years.
  • Frequent use (weekly): 1–3 years due to wear and tear.

Highly recommended brands include:

 

  • Petzl: Known for versatile models, ideal for sport and trad climbing.
  • Black Diamond: Offers beginner-friendly options.
  • Arc'teryx: Premium harnesses for alpine and sport climbing.
  • Edelrid: Affordable yet durable options. 

Climbing harnesses are designed to meet stringent safety standards, such as EN 12277 or UIAA 105. Proper use, regular inspection, and adherence to weight limits ensure safety. Visible damage or aging materials should prompt replacement. 

Consider these factors:

 

  • Type of climbing: Sport, trad, or alpine.
  • Fit: Ensure snug waist and leg loops without restricting movement.
  • Features: Look for gear loops, adjustable straps, and padding for comfort.
  • Weight: Lightweight options are better for long climbs or mountaineering.
