Durable, lightweight harness
I'm very pleased with this harness choice. I had previously owned the Black Diamond Primrose harness in XS, which wasn't bad, but I was looking for something less bulky and heavy. The R280 is significantly more expensive, but it had absolutely delivered in comfort and lightness. I'm a sport climber, and it is perfect for my redpoints, however, if you're planning to hanging around in it all day, it might be nice to go with something with a bit more padding. Overall, I'm very pleased with the purchase. (Side note on sizing: I wore an XS in the BD, but got the R280 in S, the sizing chart is accurate for this harness).

Awesome Harness!
Ladies! This harness is definately worth the extra pennies. It's very comfortable on- even hanging in it. Even though it's super thin, without tons of padding it's one of the most comfortable harnesses I've tried.
