Good harness for a beginner
I am a beginner and mainly bought the harness to try out indoor climbing and to belay. Works great for both.

The best I could find, but it gets sweaty
I've been trying a lot of harnesses, and this one is the only one that fits me correctly, without the belt hanging loose behind me, pulled by the gear's weight (this waist-gap issue is something I have very regularly with pants too). This one stays relatively close to the small of my back even when it's loaded with quickdraws and whatnot. I credit the V-shape of the belt for it. I find that it has everything needed on a harness : four gear loops, adjustable leg loops, enough waist adjustability to allow my butt in but to also tighten around my waist, and a haul loop at the back that I use to clip my shoes. It's comfy when standing and it's comfy when hanging in.
BUT the fabric of said belt is not very breathable. I've been sweating in it until november (indoors) - now it's cold enough that I don't sweat with it, but I'll have to see if it's ok in the summer...

This harness is the best! It's very comfortable, durable, adjustable, and light. I use it both in the gym and outside. In the gym, it's been 2-3x per week for 3 months now, and I don't think there is a single sign of wear.
Before purchasing, I spent a lot of time debating harnesses and almost spend a lot more money on a different harness, but I'm SO glad I didn't. Pick this one.

It's a very comfortable harness, and has been performing very well after 5 months of use. Also, the delievery was on time!
As a note, for me the sizing was a bit off. According to the sizing chart, my body measurements indicate XS, but the size S was a better fit because it allowed the waist pads to touch or overlap (and "center" the harness).

Unfortunately, had to return as the sizing listed on the website didn't match reality. I got the XS size, which should have allowed a good few inches of room to adjust (I'm a 63cm waist, 47cm legs). However, I couldn't pull the leg straps over my thighs, and the waist was too small. Only marking down a star because aside from the sizing it seems like a good harness. Will repurchase but in a larger size.
