A chest harness is for use in situations such as big wall aid climbing and crevassed glacier travel where upright stability is critical. Also for slim youngsters whose hips are not developed enough to ensure that a waist harness is completely safe. This one is extremely simple and fits just about everyone.
Chest harnesses are designed to prevent climber inversion and must be used in conjuction with a sit harness, not on their own.
