I doubt any will be "comfortable" if you have to hang for any length of time.

If I am not mistaken, here in Alabama for 2013-14 there were 4 deaths by fall from tree stands reported ... no harnesses. No telling how many non-fatal injuries and close calls were not reported! For whatever reason there is still a lot of hunters down this way not using a safety harness. Beats me why?
pockets would be a plus, cant get at anything in my pants pockets with a harness on. love the reversible realtree and blaze orange.


even though ive only ever had that nylon strap harness for my ladder stand i always use mine. none of my friends use theirs, of course they were a bunch of idiots since first grade lol
