I bought this harness to kind of be my all around harness. I like that it has ice clipper slots and is super lightweight. I also appreciate the fifth gear loop, as a dude who enjoys multipitch trad climbing! Now on to the issues I have with it. I wish the gear loops were bigger, to accommodate more gear. I like to be able to fit at least a full rack, .3-3, on each loop and I struggle to fit it all on these gear loops. The bigger issue I have with it after a few months of use is that the leg loops seems to roll up when I sit in the harness for a while. I appreciate that the harness is lightweight, but the lack of padding also means lack of structure/integrity in the leg loops which allows it to roll up the legs while weighting it. Other than the rolling, which is pretty painful, the harness is quite comfortable to climb in. It’s also worth noting that my belay loop is starting to show a significant amount of wear and I’ve only had the harness for 6 months. While I do use it regularly (at least 1-2x/week), I wasn’t expecting the belay loop to wear down so quickly. It’s an okay harness, but nothing to write home about, for sure. I’d recommend looking elsewhere for a comfy all around harness.
