Product Information: How many Arborists get around in a harness that is not quite right, or have needed to get modified to feel right? With the Buckingham Aussie range of harnesses we believe we have finally got the perfect arborist harness. Based on the tried and true original Buckingham range, the Aussie harnesses offer a number of extra features. The Aussie Master harness comes standard with the popular ''Sliding D'' bridge. It has 10mm padding in the back for extra support, two steel D rings on each side for flipline attachment so there is no longer any need to crowd a single D with multiple flipline attachments. Four steel accessory loops allow for plenty of secure tool attachment. To top it off, the AussieMaster has a unique removable batten seat. This allows for the climber to enjoy either a hard or soft seat on the one harness. Don't settle for a cheap imitation. Go for the original and the best.
