Black Diamond Chaos Harness

Product Descriptions

REI Description: The Black Diamond Chaos climbing harness is a premier trad climbing harness for serious rock hounds. It offers comfort and functionality to keep you happy on all-day climbs. Kinetic Core Construction(TM) (KC^2) employs a tri-laminate of liquid crystal polymer (LCP) strands distributed along the horizontal axis of the harness belt. LCP strands are sandwiched between lightweight taffeta and layered with polyethylene foam inserts; a durable nylon shell and a soft, breathable lining complete the design. KC^2 eliminates bulk and distributes the load evenly throughout the harness, offering excellent comfort while working routes. Bullhorn-shape waistbelt is ergonomically designed for all-day comfort. Lightweight aluminum Speed Adjust buckle is prethreaded for quick and secure 1-handed operation. 4 pressure-molded polyethylene gear loops are reinforced with nylon webbing to provide excellent racking space with high strength. Rear elastic straps adjust easily. Black Diamond Chaos climbing harness has a rear haul loop that is rated at 12kN.

Backcountry Description: Trad climbers looking for an ideal blend of functionality and comfort will appreciate the Black Diamond Chaos Harness' low profile and bullhorn-shaped waist, which feature Kinetic Core construction and strands of Vectran spread for weight distribution.
