Creaky harness

My harness is creaking when prussiking. What causes this? Inspecting it shows no obvious problems with the fabric, buckles or stitching.

Ignore it but if it's bugging you treat it with fabric conditioner.

OK, but I?m still interested in knowing what causes it. Is it the plastic sheathing on the leg loops?

It sounds like it would be the plastic part of your harness

I think you can sometimes get creaking when the attachment loops slide against the D ring. You could check for that by putting some neat fabric conditioner on the inside of the loops as a lubricant.

I?ll investigate both places and see what some lubricant does. Thanks both for your answers.

I don't think I've ever had a harness which didn't creak.
