Ever since I purchased the Trinovid 8x42 I have been trying to find a good binocular harness. I had the Leupold quick release elastic type for about 4 years and have been using it with the Trinovid.
I tried the Rick Young ultra light harness (reviewed on another thread) which is a nice concept using the shock-cord and a decent harness in general , but I discontinued using it, as I preferred the Leupold overall.
The Trinovid is a rather heavy binocular. Recently I watched a youtube review (which seemed more like an advertisement) of the 8x42 Trinovid where the reviewer referred to it as "compact and light weight"... light weight ???? He also called it the "Trinovid HD"... HD ???
Anyhoo ... my shoulders and neck have some soreness when out for a while in the field (in part due to craning my neck looking for those warblers), so I decided to try one more brand of binocular harness/strap. I chose the Bino-Pac and picked the black one: https://www.binopac.com/shop. It is also available on Amazon where I purchased it.
For me, it's a better choice than the elastic type harness.
It's more comfy, fits better and the binocular doesn't feel like it is pulling/tugging on the strap like it does with the elastic strap.
The strap is one size and seems to be made for big burly hunters. I have it on the tightest setting and it fits nice with some extra room. It is easy to adjust quickly if needed. I used the connectors from the Rick Young harness to connect my binocular to the Bino-Pac straps.
Just wanted to write something short up in case anyone is in search of a decent strap.
