The harness that redefines backcountry operations. Now available in tactical Black!
The Outback Convertible Harness is a lightweight modular system for fastmoving technical teams in remote areas. Tested to EN and ASTM standards, the Outback Convertible Harness is strong, versatile, and designed for challenging operations in rescue, climbing, caving, tactical, and military. Its patented integration lets users configure the harness for the task at hand and share components in the field. Every team member wears the belt, edge personnel add leg loops, and vertical technicians get the full ensemble.
The Outback Convertible Harness goes the distance and gets the job done. It’s globally certified, highly configurable, and fully featured for demanding conditions.
Note: if you’re between sizes or plan to wear multiple layers of clothing, we recommend sizing up for more range in the waist belt circumference.
