i really like the AGC. mine holds my bino, a wind checker, lens cleanerand a few spare rounds of ammo. the mesh pocket in the back is a great spot to keep my license, tags, pen and zip tie in a zip lock bag

I really like the Kuiu pro harness as the lid flips away from you, not towards you like most (possibly every??) others I have seen. It’s simplistic and slim and provides great protection for your binos. You can get accessories to attach to it if wanted.
There is an AGC bino pack waiting for me at home when I get back there. I’ll give it a try.
What should I be looking for in a bino harness? What brands do you like or dislike, and why?
Remington,
I only have a standard Allen brand with no bells or whistles. It's plenty for my 8-15X mini zooms that probably are around a pound. I keep going back to these since they are light and versatile. If or when I upgrade binos, I will fabricate my own case and harness. I'm blessed with my custom camo, hardware and foams for any project.
That said, I am considering some options like you are. So far, I checked out Nashville's recommendation. Since I like features of both, but especially the pro KUIU, I'll post the two of three vids I watched. More than likely, I'll borrow from one design and add my customizations when the time comes.
For a few years I used a Crooked Horn but after 3 or 4 seasons the elastic stretched so bad it was getting useless. Then I switched to a Rick Young and was VERY glad I did. I've had it maybe 5 years now and it's as good as new.

Back home and just tried out the Alaska Guide Creations Kodiak Cub w/ M.A.X.X pocket around the house. I’ll be headed out looking for bears for a few days and will be leaving the Kuiu harness at home so I’m not tempted… First impressions on the AGC so far, I will most likely stick to the Kuiu. It’s not feeling as comfortable at this point but it needs further (fair) testing.
So people probably just push my views under the bridge because they want to be a "bro hunter". Tidewe is a chinese company that makes knockoffs. For 30.00 you get a very well designed harness with a rf pouch. Just look it up. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Yes, let's patronize Chinese companies as much as possible. Wow...
Yeah. You might be surprised and pay Gore for a Sikta harness made by Tidewe or get a Kuiu or Vortex made in Vietnam. You are paying for a name. Sure there are some that are made in US like the Alaska Guide Creations. I love that harness but its Yuge. Tidewe basically is a direct company that manufactures harnesses for companies like Vortex or Sitka and then doesn't charge you for that sitka or Kuiu emblem.

Personally, I’d rather buy a Kuiu made in Vietnam than anything made in China.
