Abstract

The present invention provides a full body harness which utilizes a reduced number of components thereby simplifying construction and reducing manufacturing costs. The harness has only four pieces of webbing, two identical shoulder straps and two identical leg straps. These shoulder straps and leg straps are connected to two uniquely designed, multi-functional hip plates. The harness also has a standard back pad and a standard shoulder strap retainer.
