Walking Harness and Reins (Navy)

As British parents 30 years ago, we used a walking harness and reins with our children. Having moved to the US and become grandparents, we were thrilled to find this product is still available, though it had to be shipped from the United Kingdom. The harness easily adjusts to fit over thick jackets or light weight shirts, and has the bonus that it can be laundered if necessary. The reins can be unhooked into a single strap or left attached in a loop, which we prefer, making it easier to prevent any tumbles. We are able to take our grandson out walking, knowing that he has the feeling of independence, while we are confident that he is safe with the reins securely in our grasp.

I'll update the review if/when I use this for its intended purpose. I'd bought it to give my Antilop high chair a five point harness, but I guess the company changed how the walking harness was structured. The hack you might have seen in videos no longer works. I'll keep the harness for when my little one is a bit bigger.

Connectors are extremely hard to open.

The clasp is impossible for me to open, so it's useless. My adult son, who's very strong, also struggled to get it open. He said he could cut out the clasp and make something that opens easier.UPDATE:We threw this in the trash. Our little one is now walking outside and into everything which is the ideal time to use a walking harness, but we found this harness impossible to use. You have to adjust 4 straps to fit the toddler which we gave up because it's too fidderly and the clasp in the back doesn't work unless you use pliers. I should mention that we are used to tacking up horses and believe things should be practical and easy if you're going to use them every day.I do NOT recommend this product.
