PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The Bravo is a lightweight, comfortable harness that provides a clean, low profile for tactical operations, theatrical use, or any rigging and rescue applications at height. Gear loops for this harness can be added and are intentionally not pre-sewn for tactical and theatrical uses where gear loops may interfere with desired performance and function.
WARNING! The Bravo Harness is fitted with two different types of buckles for the waist belt and the leg loops. The waist belt has a Quick Adjust Sliding Bar Buckle to allow easy adjustment when properly rigged. The leg loops have Double Back Buckles that function differently than the Quick Adjust Sliding Bar Buckle.

Disinfecting - Disinfection of a harness may occasionally become necessary, such as when exposed to bloodborne pathogens. To disinfect a harness from suspected bloodborne pathogens, PMI recommends following the NFPA standard for cleaning rescue gear of bloodborne pathogens. Keeping in mind that undiluted household bleach is known to damage nylon, NFPA calls for using a diluted solution of household bleach to clean rescue gear.
