This is one of those personal preference things, where you really have to develop your own style. My buddy has 10x42 SLCs which are pretty heavy bins, and he uses a harness which he loves, so I was predisposed to prefer a harness with my 8x42 Ultravids. I removed the Leica strap, put on a bino-buddy harness and hunted with it.
I hated it! It felt like a cumbersome bra that wasn't loose enough to pull the bins up to my eyes. I put the nice, wide neoprene strap back on and either carry my bins bandolier style over one shoulder under the other arm, or just short strap them off the back of my neck. It's generally cool enough for a jacket so with the strap outside my collar, I really dont feel it on my neck. But as there are lots who love and swear by the harness, I can't say they are wrong, you have to try and see what's best for you.
