Mountain Gear

Made to fit the many varying sizes of gym users, Petzl's Gym Harness is pared down and extremely adjustable, making it perfect beyond the gym in mountaineering or ice-climbing applications. Adjustable leg loops fit easily over skis or crampons, a Dyneema-reinforced tie-in point is exceptionally strong, and pre-threaded DoubleBack buckles provide added security.

Features:

  • Added security provided by the pre-threaded DoubleBack buckles that adjust quickly with a single pull
  • Detachable elastic leg loop straps
  • One size fits all
  • Single tie-in point is reinforced with Dyneema for increased durability
  • Stripped down and simple but not lacking in strength with durable nylon webbing and a polyester and Dyneema attachment point
  • Useful for wearers of multiple sizes or for fitting over layers of clothes, adjustable leg loops allow you to dial in the fit or slip the harness on while wearing skis or crampons

Campmor

The Gym is a one-size-fits-all harness that is ideal for groups. The double-back buckles on the waist and leg loops allow for fast, safe and secure adjustments. Dynema reinforcements help to resist abrasions. The tie in point is clearly identified with a label which says "tie in here" and is easy to clip.
