Zephir Alpine

Description

The alpine climbing harness from the Zephir line was developed in close cooperation with the two top alpinists Dani Arnold and David Lama and therefore reflects the needs of modern alpinists, who want to travel light and move quickly. In spite of a minimalist design that has been reduced to the minimum weight, the belt’s split webbing offers optimum comfort. The extremely flat design of the waist belt means that the Zephir Alpine is easily to use in combination with a backpack. Ice-screw carabiners can be individually positioned and almost any number of them can be clipped into the stitched daisy chains, while the four large but very light gear loops can handle more hardware. The Zephir Alpine finds demanding combined walls to prove itself on all over the world: from Alaska to Patagonia and from the classics in Chamonix to the north face of the Eiger!

Innovative Split Webbing technology.
New aluminum Slide Bloc buckle.

Ideal for :
Mixed- and Iceclimbing, Multipitch Rockclimbing

Weight (g)

Weight

In grams, the weight, as stated by the manufacturer/brand.

If there are differences in weight (due to multiple sizes or optional accessories) we'll list them here.

The default weight is the middle-most size, often this is size M.

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.
