Description

Ultra-lightweight and adjustable harness for technical mountaineering and ski mountaineering.

The lightest Petzl harness! FLY is a minimalist harness specifically designed for technical mountaineering and ski mountaineering. It's easy to put on without removing your skis or crampons, making it a practical solution. It’s also modular, with removable padding in the waistbelt and leg loops, so you can adapt the level of comfort and weight. Gear loops and ice screw retainers allow you to keep your gear within reach.

    - Designed for technical mountaineering and ski mountaineering
    - Can be donned with both feet on the ground while wearing skis or crampons

    - Slim design
    - Minimalist pouch allows the harness to be compressed, freeing up space in your pack
  • Adjustable level of comfort:
    - Innovative buckle-free construction (Petzl patent): sliding toggle lock instead of metal buckle makes it quick and easy to adjust waistbelt, The leg loops are adjusted with a girth hitch
    - FUSEFRAME Technology with removable foam, for adapting the comfort level of the harness to the activity; The comfort foam on the leg loops and waistbelt can be easily removed, making the harness even lighter

    - Two gear loops and four additional loops to organize and carry gear required for technical outings
    - Retainer with silicone interior on each leg loop, for holding an ice screw
    - Attachment points, webbing, and gear loops reinforced with high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE), for greater resistance to abrasion and rubbing

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.

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.”

2 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.
