We use the Leupold harness and have been completely happy with them. Very comfortable, easy to put on/off and keep your binos close/tight when walking or crawling.

I have the badlands case. Awesome. Keeps em nice and cozy and the magnet closure is quiet, as long as you don't let it snap closed.

I use the mybinocularharness.com, it cost 17.95 with free shipping worldwide. I really like it, keeps the bino's close.

Have the Badlands but prefer the S4 lockdown sytem, much quicker and easier to deploy.

Id reccomend you try a badlands bino case first, they are the $hit In my opinion! Best piece of gear I got in years!

Tha hassle of taking them in and out of the harness is what I didn't care for either.

the pros i see with the badlands one is padded straps. is the extra padding worth it?

Looks interesting. But do you not find that when walking in the rain the lenses will fog when they are covered that tightly after getting wet?

Hunted in the rain and snow this spring with no problems, it's a great design if you like to glass while you're hiking.
