Never heard of it.

What’s the mental stuff going on at the back with the red cord?

Also can’t see a waist buckle?

 

Sold out anyway.

They sold out sharpish and had some pretty good reviews, especially at the price.

Looks like a rebranded Jiang su ropes and belts offering.

That’s some eagle eyes there

mr squirrel … I did see it on face book being talked about, didn’t pay much attention though

I'm not sure about the price point with a 5 year lifespan - most other harnesses will have a 10 year lifespan

It’s under 200 quid with a 5 year lifespan from purchase, that’s a massive difference over a new TM, who’s actually used a harness everyday and got 10 years out of it?
Mine are usually shabby and rank after 3.

Though the quality of the hardware of the new TM pro seems dubious, they do have lots and lots of replaceable parts.

 

I would be interested to hear in time from any Magpie users how the durability/longevity compares to other harnesses on the market.

Agree, even got the weird red string looped in the back the same. Customisable if you order 100 at a time.
