Updated design of the most rugged, adaptable & practical harness on the market.
CHECK THE INTERNAL POUCH DIMENSIONS BELOW & COMPARE WITH THE EXTERNAL MEASUREMENTS OF YOUR BINOCULARS.
Having used and owned numerous binocular harnesses in the past, they were all pretty good in their own way but had at least a couple of downsides, sometimes major design problems that were a cause of constant frustration... Fortunately LVG is in a position to create what we think is a practical, hard working, adaptable option.
Our Mountain Bino Harness 'MBH' is built tough with 500 Denier Cordura, the main compartment and lid is lined with closed cell foam for protection, the lid is held shut with magnets for quiet security. Two elasticised mesh side pouches are perfect for a wind checker / fox call / lens cloth, small folding knife etc., the rear mesh sleeve will hold a DOPE card or even a reasonable sized mobile phone for quick access and a sneaky selfie on the side of a hill. We added a spacious yet reasonably sized front zippered pouch for smaller items. Mesh side wings are three MOLLE columns wide, allowing the attachment of most pouches on the market from zippered accessories up to magnum rifle magazine pouches... This is a major step forward compared to the vast majority of other options available on the market.
The forward opening, foam lined, contoured and enclosed, lid has two magnets as the closure system. (Please, DO NOT use this product if you have a pacemaker. You must, consult your Doctor and or Cardiologist prior to use).
What we have found is that elasticised lids, adjustable lids, slip over lids etc. are awkward at times and can result in you simply lifting the whole harness up instead of opening the top. Especially with grippy felt fabric inside. Makes sense, in execution we haven't had a good experience unfortunately. The LVG MBH is a bucket with a simple, clean lid.. No straps, no buckles to try and close one handed, no cords hanging out the bottom etc.
The LVG MBH V2 will help you carry the essentials and keep the rest in your pack... Depending on attachments, you can easily carry a size compatible pair of bino's, pocket size LRF / UHF / GPS, Kestrel / pocket knife, lens cloth, wind check, DOPE card, shooters licence, car key all in one place up on your chest where you have constant access.
The SORD 'On The Man Half' attachment Velcro sandwich system has been added to the rear of the main pouch allowing the addition of a zip closure dangler style pouch as required.
All fabric, webbing, mesh and binding has been colour matched in the ever glorious A-Tacs IX camouflage pattern of course. A great looking pattern than works extremely well in a wide range of environments.
