Gear Loops

Number of Gear Loops

Gear loops are used to hold gear (quickdraws, cams, etc) onto your harness. 4 gear loops is most common.

0 - 1 Gear Loops

Most often on full body harnesses or guide/gym style harnesses.

2-3 Gear Loops

Mostly found on lighter harnesses made for [ski] mountaineering or high-end sport climbing where weight is a high priority.

4 - 5 Gear Loops

The standard/most common number for climbing harnesses. Perfect for sport and trad.

More Than 6 Gear Loops

Designed for long multi-pitch and big wall climbing, found on harnesses made to hold the maximum amount of gear.

Worth Considering

Occasionally, the number of gear loops will change on a harness model depending on the size. There could be 7 gear loops for the med/large but only 5 gear loops for the xsmall/small. In this case we list the highest number for the filters, and then write an explanation on the product page like, “Size S/XS can only fit 5 gear loops.”

4 Gear loops
Ice Clip Slots

Ice Clip Slot

Ice clipper slots are made to fit a carabiner that holds ice screws. These slots are generally only used by ice climbers but there is no disadvantage to having them on your harness.

Less than 40% of harnesses will have ice clipper slots. And those harnesses will usually have 2 or 4 slots, often located next to, or between, the gear loops.

Haul Loop

Haul Loop

Trad climbers often look for a haul loop as they're intended to haul a rope (second line) or pack (while you climb the chimney).

A haul loop can also hold shoes or other accessories. Although not the intended use, it is also commonly used to hold a chalk bag.

Climbing Gear Review no rating given just a review

Attention ladies: This is the be-all, end-all harness for women. Whether you’re a sport climber taking huge falls, a traddie carrying pounds of gear, or a big waller hanging for hours, you won’t find a more comfortable, durable, or versatile setup.

Climbing Report Gear Review no rating given just a review

The main design features are stiff foam inserts on the waist and legs, with large perforations that allow a lot of air flow. This is a really nice feature for those hot Summer days that are right around the corner. The padding on the waist and legs is fairly thin, but wide, so its a really comfortable harness to hang in if your working a project or climbing a long multi-pitch route with bad belay stances or hanging belays. At 460 grams it’s fairly lightweight. The low weight is nice, but it should be mentioned that the stiff foam made this a harder harness to pack than other harnesses. A minor issue, but one you’ll want to keep in mind if you’re packing for a backcountry climbing trip. The Solaris also comes with a 25 kg loop in the back for hanging packs, or towing sleds. For ice climbers you’ll be happy to find the loops for ice clippers. The gear loops are simply designed. They are stiff and sit out from the waist belt making clipping gear really smooth and easy. They are also covered in a durable turquoise colored nylon, making them both good looking and functional. The leg loop attachment is easily detached making the calls from mother nature easier to manage.
