Notch Chester DLX Chest Harness

Notch Chester DLX Chest Harness

The Notch Chester DLX is a multi-functional SRS chest harness designed to provide enhanced comfort, equipment storage, and climbing system integration for professional arborists. Building on the original Chester SRS Chest Harness, the DLX version adds practical storage options, hydration compatibility, and multiple attachment points to support efficient climbing throughout the working day.

Designed to support efficient SRS climbing

The Chester DLX is specifically designed to assist with Single Rope System (SRS) climbing, featuring seven central daisy chain loops that provide multiple attachment positions for your climbing system. Additional daisy chain webbing on the shoulders offers even greater flexibility, while the included suspender straps allow the harness to be connected directly to your climbing harness. For correct fitting, the webbing loop should be positioned at the front when worn.

Practical storage for everyday arboriculture

Unlike a standard chest harness, the Chester DLX incorporates multiple storage solutions to keep essential equipment close at hand. The front stretch pockets measure approximately 7" × 4" and are suitable for carrying items such as a phone, snacks, wedges, communication devices, medical supplies, or a knee ascender. It is compatible with most 1.5 litre lumbar hydration reservoirs and features left and right shoulder tunnels that can route either a hydration hose or a knee ascender. If a hydration reservoir is not fitted, the rear compartment can also be used with hot or cold gel packs.

Lightweight comfort for long working days

Manufactured from breathable air mesh fabric, the Chester DLX remains lightweight and comfortable during extended climbing sessions. Adjustable side straps allow the fit to be tailored to the individual user, while integrated reflective loops provide additional gear attachment points. Combining comfort, storage, and climbing system integration, the Chester DLX is a practical upgrade for professional arborists using SRS techniques.
