Although I always get attached to my gear as a sort of good luck charm, it’s a good idea to replace it now and then 
My harness is getting old so it’s time for a new one. I always choose Petzl, so this time I’m getting the new Hirundus. Some specs:
Ultralight and super compact harness for maximum climbing performance. Four equipment loops.- Frame Construction with breathable monofilament mesh evenly distributes pressure, providing maximum support and comfort
- Woven polyester mesh on the inside of the harness wicks moisture for improved comfort and speeds drying in wet conditions
- Perforated closed cell foam on the waistbelt and leg loops increases breathability
- DoubleBack buckle is pre-threaded and adjusts quickly with a single pull, helping to ensure proper closure
- Green belay loop helps users identify proper tie-in / attachment point
- Reinforced tie-in points for increased durability in this high-wear area
- Elasticized leg loops have a large range of expansion for correct fit, while staying in place on the thighs
- Rigid, inclined 3D front equipment loops for easy access to gear; flexible rear loops stay out of the way while wearing a pack
- Detachable elastic leg loop straps
