Edelrid Helios Climbing Harness - lava

Comfort level five – that's what the versatile, exceptionally comfortable HELIOS harness stands for. The waist belt and leg loops are three-dimensionally pre-shaped and feature 3D Pad technology. With this technology, the padding is strategically concentrated only on the areas where it is really needed. This means that the sides of the waist belt are extra padded and the area around the spine is left unpadded. The leg loops have additional padding on the back as well as stabilizing elements that make them particularly dimensionally stable. The two-part load strap, together with the butterfly shape of the waist belt, ensures even and optimal load distribution. The hip belt padding is specially designed for this harness model and adapts perfectly to the anatomical body shape of climbers whose waist and hips are similar in size. In addition, the large central ring provides more comfort when standing and belaying.

The textured outer material and elastic elements in muted, tonal colors give it a modern, clean look. Overall, the HELIOS impresses with its outstanding fit and comfort as well as optimal force distribution. A comfortable harness for bouldering sport climbing routes, multi-pitch climbing, and long, uncomfortable hanging positions.

3D Vent Line

The harnesses in the 3D Vent Lite series are super-lightweight climbing harnesses with 
an innovative design and maximum freedom of movement. They combine minimal weight and small pack size with exceptional comfort when hanging and carrying. This is achieved by the high-strength HDPE (high-density polyethylene) straps incorporated into the waist belt and leg loops. They ensure even force distribution across the entire width of the harness without adding bulk. The carrier material made of monofilament yarns is breathable, allowing body heat and sweat to escape to the outside.
