chest harness
Upper body gear
A chest harness is a system of straps worn around the torso, used in climbing, rescue work, or industrial settings to distribute weight and provide attachment points for ropes or equipment.
Unlike a full-body harness, it covers only the upper body and is often paired with a seat harness for complete fall protection.
Chest harnesses also appear in BDSM contexts as restraint gear or decorative bondage wear: She buckled the leather chest harness over his shoulders.
