Robert Seevers's review

I have used the Petzl Sitta harness for going on 5 years now I am on my second one of the older model and it is still going strong. I cannot say enough good things about this harness. It disappears in my pack, fits great, and is surprisingly comfortable for its minimal build. The front gear loops are among my favorite on any harness. I use the divider to separate my nuts and cams from my quickdraws and slings. This frees up the rear loops for organizing other tools and materials. This harnesses and does anything and everything without ever getting in the way.
