CARRYING HARNESS

Vest Harness

Vest Harness Six Moon Designs' unique vest harness supports a 6-point connection between the sack and your body. There are several advantages to this system:

1. it locks the pack completely to your body, eliminating swaying or bouncing as you walk or run.

2. instead of the entire weight of the pack resting on your shoulders and hips, the vest harness transfers some of that weight to your core. This reduces and eliminates pressure sores on shoulders and hips.

3. The vest harness comes with extra pockets , providing additional storage options for quick access.

Health benefits of vest harness: Because the vest harness spreads the load-bearing to the center of the back, most hikers find that it reduces back pain. Founder Ron Moak recognized this right from the start. After a cancer treatment , Moak found he could only manage a couple hours of hiking before he needed to stop due to severe back pain. A vest harness redistributed his weight so he could walk more upright. This extra support allowed him to walk longer distances with less pain. That' s why the first backpack he designed incorporated the vest harness. If you haven 't been able to backpack as easily and for as long as you once did, you might want to seriously consider the vest harness. We're not claiming that the vest harness is a miracle cure, but it did help Moak get back to really enjoying backpacking again. And we hope it can help you too.

Shoulder straps as standard

There are several reasons why you might choose a standard shoulder strap harness:

1. If you are used to wearing traditional backpacks and not running backpacks, you will probably be comfortable with standard shoulder straps.
2. If you are a full-breasted woman or a broad-chested man, you may find the vest harness uncomfortable. In this case, S-Curve shoulder straps can provide a better hiking experience.
3. The regular shoulder straps are easier to slip out of if you want to take a longer break without the weight of the pack.
