Sitka Harness

Well designed and built Easy to use, light weight.

Excellent Harness, Not a fan on the straps

This harness works and is the most comfortable that I have tried. The only thing I don’t like about it is the straps/strap holder. You roll them up and put them in an elastic band and if you snag it on something it comes undone or when you’re taking it off. Other than that, I would still buy another and continue using it.

After running the original bino

After running the original bino harness for a couple years, I decided to try out the Mountain optics harness. Hands down the best harness I’ve used. The compartments are good size, very easy to adjust to fit the body better. I’m very pleased it with and would recommend it!

Fits comfortable!

I like it better than my harness that came with binoculars. The lowest strap needs to be longer, don’t know if I can use with my fanatic jacket.

Great bino harness!

This last year I’ve been ramping up my hunting, trying to go from a casual hunter to a more religious deer/big game hunter. I upgraded my optics and got some Maven binos and a Maven rangefinder, this bino harness fits both perfectly with room to spare. I keep all my essentials in this harness like tags, gutting gloves and a snack. The material is soft, quiet and durable. I can see myself using this on almost every hunt. I will admit, trying to wear the Sitka blade orange ballistic vest and the harness becomes a little cluttered in the front but I’d make this purchase over and over again.

Not what I expected

Expected a better fit and better quality on the straps.

Small but everything is there.

Typically carried a back pack to deer stand but changed over to the Mountain Optics Harness in Elevated II. Was a challenge to downsize but well worth it and now only bring what needed that day for the specific type of hunt. Would like a little more room but great item and well designed.

Nice harness

Easy access to binoculars and other small items. Side compartments do not come off easily, but that's a good thing. Lots of room for adjustment to get the right fit.

Solid Harness That Gets Too Hot

Awesome piece of kit. Lots of storage, quite comfortable. Only negative is the backing does not breathe whatsoever. After very little movement sweat is soaking through behind harness. Maybe a thinner backer would help alleviate this?

Mountain Optics

Works well! Worth it !

Nice bino pack

Quiet; Rides low so it stays out of your draw; enough storage for everything you need. Accessory holders tend to pop open if you’re shoving your gloves behind the harness.

Great Harness

I enjoyed using this harness all early season bow hunting. The harness was easy to adjust and comfortable to wear. The pocket behind the main bino compartment was the perfect place for my handgun.

Great harness! Used it this season and it was everything I needed and more!

Quality gear

As always top notch gear from Sitka. Have only used a few times but it is easy to use and quiet.

I love the concept for

I love the concept for elk hunting to be able to have binos, rangefinder and preferred calls all so accessible. I dont like having extra stuff in the way so it is going to take me personally some getting used to. Quality is awesome though and i love that you can switch to multiple configurations.

Mountain optics harness

Very well made, quiet plenty big, the only think I would do is make the straps wider

Love the harness they are

Love the harness they are light and quite and look great and great quality!

Thin shoulder straps

This harness has lots of storage, but the shoulder straps are thin and do not distribute the weight comfortably.

Tried & Tested - Awesome bino bivy

I've used several different optic harnesses and this one has been the best fit for me. It's lightweight and put my rangefinder in it, scope cleaning pen, license & tags, flashlight, and calls in the compartments. I pack a 10 mm handgun under it in a holster that works very well- and i can still access my gun over the top of the harness with ease.

Excellent harness, has a couple flaws

The straps I don’t think are one enough I’m 6’2” and 195 pounds and with heavier winter gear on the strap doesn’t make it around to clip. Also the small clips that connect to your binoculars broke so they can’t be attached to your harness anymore. I was wondering if I could get replacement clips. Otherwise I love all the storage and versatility it has. It makes your essentials more accessible and Jew comfortable which is really important to me.

Best Harness Out there

this is by far one of my favorite binocular harnesses on the market, not only is it big enough to fit my binos it also has extra pockets for my range finder and release while out in the woods. I highly recommend this harness to anyone looking to upgrade or just change harnesses

Lightweight and Verstile

Love the additional pockets. I used this for a run and gun setup for Turkey when I didn’t want to bring my vest. Put the binos in the center compartment and still had room in the other ones for a pot call and some mouth calls. Wish they had additional pockets to purchase for a water bottle. Excited to try this out this deer season.

Need different sizes for bigger binos

I bought these not even thinking they would not fit my new binos. Don’t get me wrong it’s a nice bino harness but if you have 15x56 do not buy they will not fit. But if you have 10x42 they are perfect They definitely need to make different sizes for the binos themself fit me fine.

sad and bummed out

I don’t know if it’s my fault for not reading or they didn’t publish info, my Swarovski 15x56 Binoculars are to long by about a 1/2” and the lid won’t close… very disappointing and bummed out, seems to be a GREAT product otherwise 😒

Huge step up from base

Huge step up from base bino packs. I am glad to have the extra storage on the outside of my loadout instead of constantly having a different pocket depending on my gear on the hunt.

Worked great! I am hard

Worked great! I am hard in my hunting gear as a professional guide. Fit good, durable, handy additional pockets for my range finder. No complaints. People may hesitate because of the price, but I replaced my old bino case with this one after one season. This bino case kept up with me and is ready for hard use in deer season.

Great harness overall. Love the

Great harness overall. Love the option of adding or removing the side pouches for rangefinder. Very adjustable to fit the user. One downside is the width of the straps themselves. After wearing them for multiple days with a larger bino setup, the narrow straps begin to dig in and get pretty irritating. Would love if there was something offered to put on the straps to give them some more width/padding.

Awesome product. Lightweight and well

Awesome product. Lightweight and well thought. Doesn't get in the way when walking and you barely notice that you have it on. Quiet and practical but most of all, it protects my optics!

This is a very nice,

This is a very nice, solid carrier with great extra utility. Be sure to check your binocular size. This will not fit larger binoculars. Hope we see a large option in future!

Great harness! Was a little

Great harness! Was a little bit of a challenge getting it adjusted to my body but after I did it fits perfect!! Plenty of storage, Bino pouch is perfect for archery sized binos and pocket for range finder is good. Had room for extra release and I even packed my backup pistol in the pouch in the rear. Would Definitely recommend!

Amazing product very organized and

Amazing product very organized and quiet. Perfect for my binoculars and rangefinder. If you need something it’s right on you to grab. Not much movement required or noise!

Awesome harness! Tried other bino

Awesome harness! Tried other bino harnesses and nothing compares.

Great product, just needs a

Great product, just needs a deeper storage area for binos or provide a strap extender to close the cover. This would provide the extra space needed.

Bring back the bino bivy!

Bring back the bino bivy! The whole strap design is off. The straps should at least be sewn in at the correct angle to accommodate the system.

The straps leave a little

The straps leave a little to be desired. I used it all deer season and really enjoyed the pocket diversity. Was very nice to grab it and have lots of stuff in it, saves time to get to stand. I packed it in my tool bucket and put it on in the stand. The straps, using the Fanatic jacket and Fanatic lite jacket, constantly got lost putting it on. 15 minutes after in the stand I'd find one dangling and then trying to figure out which to clip appropriately. I didn't think the straps were uncomfortable, just how you undo them and clip them was difficult in the stand. Am looking/considering a second in subalpine or brown, but will consider other brands for convenience.

Love this product. I’ve actually

Love this product. I’ve actually bought 2 of these, I just wish the bino storage was a little deeper. It’s really hard to latch with my bigger binos.
