Has anyone ordered a few harnesses from a shop/online store, tried them all on at home and then send the ones that were right back?
I feel like there would be a standard return policy or at least you could explain to a shop what you were trying to do.
It works for me when I am buying shoes or other clothes online.
It would be a good service for those who simply do not have the luxury of living near a shop or a shop with a wide selection like some of the bigger online stores.

Re: Most Comfortable Harness
Just ask the shop. I have done just that, they sent me two sizes, sent one back.

Re: Most Comfortable Harness
Would say Ride engine or other hardshells. My initial thought when using it for the first time was just Wow!
Just did 4 days of nuking bam bam bam gusty winds 15-18MS or 28-38 knots where i could barely get my 7 and 9 GTS4 on the water for about 4ish hours a day. Virtually no rib or back soreness (given your core strength is ok) . I did about 600 jumps or so.
Cant go wrong if you find one that fits your body, it takes so much off the load off.

Re: Most Comfortable Harness
I would say try the harness on, bodies are different, so a perfect fit for one guy might not be the best for another...
