OR1 Endurance (padded with gear loops)

The Endurance is a popular harness design with padding and is built for comfort and safety. Designed with 3″ wide leg loops for maximum weight distribution and comfort. Like most harnesses, the support comes from the thighs and pelvic area, not the waist.

A harness that suspends from the waist threatens damage to all the vital organs in the abdominal area and risks suffocation. The belay loop tests at over 15,000 lbs. (This is not a frogging harness.)

*NOTE: never use a “bypass” carabiner instead of a belay loop when using ans hanging in this type of harness.  There is a myth believed by many who think that the belay loop, which is the strongest part of the harness and typically tests at over 10,000 lbf, is weak and it must be “backed up” or bypassed with a large, strong carabiner.
