Check your glass ## Fit before price. Vortex publishes sizing for its two GlassPak Pro sizes on its product page. The LT2 has one size: bino compartment 6" wide by 7.1" tall, which fits compact 8x32s through full-size 10x42s and most 12x50s. If your optic only fits one of the two, that ends the comparison. ### Will my binoculars fit? The bino compartment measures 6" wide by 7.1" tall. That covers compact 8x32s through full-size 10x42s and most 12x50s. Measure your glass closed, objective end down, and give the height a quarter inch of clearance so the lid closes cleanly. Full method in our [sizing guide](https://lonetrail.co/blogs/news/bino-harness-size-guide). If yours do not fit, send it back: returns are free. ### Will my rangefinder fit the pouch? The removable pouch fits most compact rangefinders up to 3.3" wide by 4.1" tall, behind a magnetic lid. Larger unit? Add the $15 Universal Rangefinder Pouch, which stretches to fit, or run it on the other side. ### What body sizes does it fit? The straps adjust to fit hunters from roughly 80 to 400 lb, over a light shirt or a heavy hunting jacket. Reviews ## From hunters running the LT2 and the LT1 platform. Quiet **William Henson**Verified buyer LT2 Bino Harness I absolutely love the harness, it has a bunch of storage and is super quiet. Fit **Joseph**Verified buyer I took a chance on this product as I couldn't find many reviews. So therefore I'll leave my review in hopes it helps someone else. This is well worth the price and it fits my Vortex 10x42 and lots of room to spare. The material is soft and surprisingly supple. I'm a big guy and it fits with room to spare. ... Durability **Jason B**Customer review Solid Good quality. I just got done crawling through some of Colorados roughest terrain for a week while wearing this. It’s held up strong. I like the magnets instead of buttons or Velcro. Value **Ryan Melendrez**Customer review Great deal!! My option the quality is comparable to other bino harness that cost 4 times the amount.
