The photos are left to right in order of attaching your binoculars. I comment below on the attaching materials. The binocular used are heavy 10 X 50 power that weight 1.5 - 2 lbs.What's good about this: This harness works in suspending heavy binoculars around the shoulders and keeping it snug to the chest. I 've been using a neoprene strap, which is wide and bouncy, but compared to this harness that strap still places a load on the back of the neck. The problem with a strap is that when you bend over at the waist, your binoculars drop away from the body and get in the way of a task. The quality of the "plastic" snaps and swivels is high!Shortcomings - The nylon material mentioned is high quality suspender elastic. It's not cheap but at the same time under a heavy load if this is worn several times a week, my guess is that the harness will stretch out of same after a couple of years. This is a guess on my part. If the manufacturer has some test data on longevity, I'm ready to listen. This harness fits me well, and I can also get it to work for me if I wear a fall weight jacket. If you are very tall, or have a lot of girth, or are a larger person and intend to use this in cooler and cold weather, where you will be wearing jackets and even winter coats, the length of the harness might not be sufficient for you. You could add your own supplemental strap in place of the short black fabric straps. Materials - the back piece with the logo, is not leather but vegan man made leather, with a slight smell upon opening. One's binoculars are attached by two thin man made fabric material that has slots cut in them for you to pass the attached metal ring through. I would prefer the metal ring to be heavier weight. The fabric strap feels cheap and I wonder how it will hold up over time. If you only plan to attach a light compact binocular, this may not be an issue. Summary - this design definately distributes the weight of a heavy binocular away from the back of the neck. The harness keeps the binoculars snug to your chest especially when bending forward to tie a shoe or to pick something up off the ground.

This is a neat idea that for the money works better then more expensive ones,it does have a couple of short comings but if you're anything approaching handy with tools and have a box or two of parts can be remedied.In use this beats all kind things out of the simple neck strap,I've had cameras and binoculars swing all over and bang into things if you bend over with them using neck straps,or the strap can catch every danged thing when you bend or lean over,also fun when a neck strap digs into your neck if the thing you're carrying is heavy enough.This is a harness or pack type strap set up, getting it up to eye level is easy and there's a minimal of dangling bits to get caught on things,the straps are well made nylon,on this front it's excellent.The two shortcomings are the way you hook the rings you use the strap clips to attach your device....I looked at it when I opened the package and it was instant "nope" that got replaced by some way sturdier mini keyrings, seriously I wouldn't trust that cheap vinyl leather looking thing to last more then a few days.Next the strap clips you use for the above rings are...plastic,and look a tad cheap,I'm going to replace mine with some metal clips however they could be just fine,so I'm not in a hurry as this will require some needle and thread surgery,if it holds well I may not touch them, we'll see.Overall a good value for what it is,of the two shortcomings only one is a "replace,now" kind of problem,the other needs time to test while dragging all over the place.

As a long time birder and amateur astronomer, I own and frequently use multiple binoculars, depending on the activity and needs. Often I walk or hike for miles with a pair of binoculars at the ready.In general, I prefer the simplicity of the standard neck strap. So most of the time, I use a neck strap when using my lighter-weight 8x32 and 8x42 bins.But on those occasions when I use a pair of heavy (3.25 lbs) Bushnell 15x56 Abbe-Koenig prism binoculars, I always use this bino harness. (In fact, I can't imagine using heavy binoculars like the Bushnell out in the field using a regular neck strap.)This bino harness uses the traditional design. The tried-and-true, simple design requires no special instructions for use or adjustment. It's lightweight, effective, and very comfortable.It's made of elastic straps, making it very easy to put it on, even with the binoculars still attached to the harness. Also, the elastic straps provide a bit of cushion/bounce while walking around with extra heavy binoculars.Sometimes, I need to move the binoculars into a weird position depending on what I am doing at the time. And the stretchy straps let me do that easily without a need to readjust the harness.In summary, this traditional bino harness works very well. The simple design and construction should lead to reasonably long product life, even with frequent use and perhaps even occasional abuse. And the price seems reasonable.I am very happy with this product, so I would like to give it 5 stars.
