Edelrid Duke £54.99
Leading the way with a host of unique Edelrid technologies, the new Creed combines minimal weight and superb comfort for four-season climbing nirvana. Trilaminate waist belt construction gives optimal load transmission with minimal weight and a clean look. This is the first harness to integrate sleek 10mm Easy-Glider buckles in the leg loops, shaving grams without compromising performance. A Hytrel Protector increases the longevity of the tie in point. Complete with four asymmetrical forward-racking gear loops, the Creed performs equally well on summer sport route and winter ice climb.
Built tough to withstand regular use and abuse at the indoor wall and weekend crag missions, the Duke boasts a large adjustment range and excellent safety features. Two Easy Glider buckles allow easy resizing and centre the belay loop regardless of the number of layers being worn. A Hytrel Protector safeguards the tie-in loop against rope abrasion and there are four flexible gear loops. The Duke is a supremely comfortable all-rounder and exceptional value.
