Gonna put the ol trusty 10x42 geovidR in a chest pouch thingy. Ordered up an xl mystery ranch and they don't fit. Looking for a quality product. Keep it under 250 though. What do yall use for these binos?

Take a peek to the GPO Harness Pro. It's on sale at the moment for only $59.99. We sent a few out to members here recently so perhaps they can share their opinions.

I've tried quite a few and have gone back to the padded strap that came with my swaros. Much simpler and more readily available to ready in the field.

I tried a few and settled into the marsupial as best for my needs.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Anything will be better than the Leica strap that came on my Leica 8x32’s. Returning from a birding trip, the wife was helping to unpack the car and a more sickening sound you’ve never heard than your Leica binoculars hitting the concrete garage floor. The strap attachment pulled through on one side. Now reinforced and tied in on both sides.
My other auto is a .45

FTF harness. They make two sizes and have a guide to help you pick the right size for your binos.

The bino harness is one of the most useful things to come down the pipe in hunting gear since the invention of boots. It’s nice to cover and protect the greatest asset you carry in the field while hunting.

I’ve had the FHF, crooked horn, & others have tried or fooled with most of them & now use the largest AGC that holds the 10x42 SLC, Leica rangefinder, tags, extra rounds, knife, wind checker, chapstick…everything needed to be legal so backpack can be dropped if I’m in a hurry.
I’d never hunt mule deer or elk without one.

Mystery Ranch did have two different sizes. Sure, they weren't sold out of the larger size due to the holidays? The larger 12x is:
Weight: 0.7 lb.
Dimensions 9" x 8" x 4.3"

My Geovids fit very nicely in a Medium Marspupial or the new FHF model.

The Kuiu bino harness pro in size XL works well with my Geovid 3200.com.

Don’t guess the size needed. Buy Marsupial Gear and reference their precise size guide before you order. All sorts of gizmos available and durable protection for your optics. I like mine!
