I just use Sitka harness straps like suspenders they were $20. I had to replace metal rings with some cord I got at rei the metal was so loud it was annoying. Now they are silent.
Funny, I just told my girlfriend about this conversation and your point. She laughed and looks looks she's unsure about my decision making now!LOL, they are your knockers brother, do it how you want. Just not sure of the purpose of the harness AND lens covers HAHA
I highly recommend the Rick Young Outdoors (RYO) Ultralight Bino Harness. https://rickyoungoutdoors.com/binocular-harness/For you guys running a bino harness......
Which style/brand do you use that doesn’t interfere with the your saddle setup while you are tethered onto your tree? Curious to what everyone is running.
Rick young for the win. Only time I don’t like it is during rain/snow because their neoprene cover doesn’t work so hot. Otherwise I also wear it for everything. Super minimal and surprisingly comfortable.

Have you tried the Alaska Guide Creations? Has as small a profile as you're showing. I shoot my longbows and recurves wearing it. JMO
Moving away from my hunting Horn standard. The magnetic closure is too loud. Here are the options I am looking at. The AGC Kodiak is my first choice, but looking for other experiences. The RIck Young type is not for me. I keep my bridge low and do not seem to have the issues others have described.

What kind of binos require that much protection when you’re essentially stationary? Asking for a friend.
Well, I learned my lesson yesterday in pouring rain.... for my walks with the dog, I have a tool belt with a pouch for binos, quail dummy, plastic bags, etc. no lens covers on the binos. (What for? They are in a pouch, right?). Too bad, I had left the pouch unzipped and the rain was enough water on the lenses to penetrate the bino, leaving me with foggy lenses on the inside. Note to myself: try to save them and put those lens covers back on....LOL, they are your knockers brother, do it how you want. Just not sure of the purpose of the harness AND lens covers HAHA
