Decent Budget Harness! Fit could be better.
I basically used this for ice climbing during the 2006/2007 season. It is also known as the MAMMUT Focus harness on european websites.

PROS: Style, Comfortable, Drop-able Leg loops are cool, Plenty of gear loops, Seems durable. At $39 the price is decent.

CONS: Fit is way off. I'm a 33 inch waist and had to get a Large in this harness so the waist could fit properly, then I realized the leg loops are a little bigger than they should be for a Large harness.
On the Medium the waist was too small but the leg loops fit. Which is why I relegated these to winter climbing so that I could bulk up under the leg loops with layers and they now fit. Clips and Buckles are really tiny (as in miniscule) and not glove friendly at all. Tricky to put on the first couple of times and butt straps are darn near impossible to hook because the hook is paperclip-small and the loop is cocktail-straw thin. You get used to it eventually after a few tries.

Still at $39 this Harness is a great deal.
