Binocular tether strap is useless for me

It should not be this hard to tether your binos to the strap! The strap end is too thick to pass through the plastic piece which requires you to pass through it once, loop it around binos, and then pass through again to secure. It’s useless for me. Other than this major issue, it’s a great harness, I do think the S/M/L size could have just a little more adjustability.

Excellent product

I needed a bino harness and was very happy with this purchase. I love the adjustability of it as it fits over my thickest coat. The magnetic flaps are a game changer when it comes to being quiet. Would highly recommend this. Oh and it is the same camo pattern I already use.

Rangefinder pouch too small

Rangefinder pouch is laughably tiny. I don't know what rangefinder they used to test this but every one I've tried doesn't fit. The Maven crf. 1 doesn't even fit, a highly recommended, small rangefinder without the elastic loop being stretched to its limit. There also isn't enough adjustment in the straps to account for the temperature (less layers so need smaller when hot and more layers needing it larger when cold).

Well thought out bino harness. Pockets for everything. I only give it a 4 because my 10 x 50 binos fit but the lid barely closes. Same with the ranger finder.

The bowhunter's harness

This harness is perfect for the bowhunter. The felt linned main compartment makes this again perfect for bowhunters. I appreciate that I can also completely remove the harness to stow them in them compartment, in my backpack as needed. A word of caution; my larger set of binos won't fit in this harness so be sure yours will.

One of the best Sitka

One of the best Sitka gears and one of my favorite, I will give it 5 with “-“, it would be great if the range finder pocket was slightly bigger or there was an option to choose a size, my Vortex Razor HD 4000 just barely fits into the pocket with small gap while closed. But otherwise love every bit of functionality of that harness, definitely recommending.

Great product

I like the harness, wore it on a back country trip to CO. Had a little trouble removing the harness a few times, and I wish it had an integrated or external rain cover. Other than that it was great. Will have to see how it feels in the Southern heat. Issues that others mentioned didn't bother me.

Closure/retention could have been better when doing spot and stalk hunts already have had binos fall out multiple times. Good harness for Saddle hunting but would still like to see the closure/retention issues addressed. Hoping for a better version of this product in the future.

I owned the Mountain harness before this and wanted something a little easier to put on. This solved it and plus they made the lids to the pockets collapsible making it really refined and slim. Would not change a thing to the design!

Optic Harness

So far I have enjoyed the optic harness. It is much more comfortable to wear for long sits than the strappy ones you typically see. I wish was that Sitka was a little bit more proactive on different attachments/accessories for the harness. It has a great opportunity to expand its versatility. However, its limited to what you can actually buy for it without going down rabbit holes. One design recommendation i have is that if the bino holder cover opened the other way, it would make accessibility to the phone/accessory pouch on the back (chest side) easier to utilize when you have the cover up and open and it would also shield the bino's from sun reflection off the lens and provide additional concealment while your trying to access the bino's.

Good harness

The harness itself fit is very good I’m 6ft 220. I’m not to overly impressed with the binocular fit itself. Now with that said here is why. 10x42 leopolds with built in range finder. They are tight I mean you cant use one hand to pull out or return to its original resting place. If I use a regular 10x42 it is manageable. The closure tab with the string clasp is an undesirable system for me. A magnetic closure would be more desirable. The back of the pack has a cheap piece of foam for the rigidness again very cheap. There is an internal pocket that snags the binos when pulling them out or returning to resting. I have a lot of Sitka gear I really like the fir and finish of the clothing previously purchased but this harness is not up to there standards I think it needs a little more tweaking.

Design issues

The good: The concept is great. The slide lock system for securing and removing the harness is easily the best on the market. The bad: Bino pocket is on the small side. Barely fits my 10x42 glass. Rangefinder pocket is also too small. Does not completely cover my Vortex Razor HD 4000. It is a smaller rangefinder and it’s a very tight fit. Not good when if you need to hand the retrieve from pocket. Both bino and rangefinder pocket covers do not close securely. The fasteners will easily come undone with a gentle nudge from a branch or crawling through tall grass.

Love the quick attach/detach. The

Love the quick attach/detach. The bino pouch does run a little small in my opinion. I have the vortex crossfire binos and they are about 6 & 3/4” long, and they are pushing it. For binos anything 6 & 1/2” or less in length and 6” or less wide will fit perfect. The rangefinder pouch fits my halo xrt7 just right. Which is 4” long by 3” tall.
