Description
Designed for the lightweight sport climbing redpoint ice route or alpine mission, the Black Diamond Zone Harness is a versatile powerhouse. High performance, lightweight and breathable, the redesigned Zone now features our patented seamless Infinity Belay Loop, which is durable, low profile, and eliminates the dreaded belay-loop-shift when the loop-seam catches while dogging a route. Fusion Comfort Technology ensures that you'll have ample support when on the wall, while the stretch woven outer fabric adds breathability. Finally, the contoured, women’s specific fit maximizes comfort for the inevitable big whips that come from pushing your limits.

The Zone is a great performance all-rounder, which is hard to fault despite our best efforts. It's an attractive harness on several levels, not least that it's capable of doing a bit of everything, and doing it well, irrespective of whether you're climbing sport or trad, winter or alpine. The fact its fully featured, light and durable makes it even more appealing. In light of this, it feels like it justifies its price tag of £85.

A pictoral representation of UIAA-105 and EN-12277 standards for harnesses.
The UIAA equipment standard provides a baseline for equipment performance in a test lab under controlled conditions on new equipment. Although these test conditions are relevant to the conditions encountered climbing, conditions encountered at the crags and the condition of the equipment are equally important. This recommendation from the UIAA member federation The British Mountaineering Council (BMC) provides vital equipment information that is NOT explicitly addressed in the standard, particularly failure modes of the equipment and recommendations for the use, inspection, maintenance, and retirement of equipment.
