Come on, what do you want to hear. These are nylon,, solid, dependable runners. Besides the width, every company makes and sells some. Find the color/width combo you like and go to town. 4 stars because nothing is worthy of 5. Lets be realistic here people. Be safe and climb on!

And it works wonderfully! Why spend more than 20$ to have a camera strap when you can get a runner for under 10$.

Great multi-use runners. I use them for a personal anchor, top rope anchors and gear slings. They're sturdy and reliable.

I always carry a few extra slings on my harness and they come in handy more often than not. The 48" is great for clipping in to an anchor while setting up a rappel so you have enough room to move around.

I got the 30" version of these and use them as personal anchors. When your life literally rests on a piece of equipment, it is nice to know it is not going to fail! These are super strong, and are a great value.

It'll hold you up and prevent you from falling to your demise. It also doubles as a make shift camera strap when in a pinch. 10/10.

These are great for a bunch of uses. I like using the 30" for clipping into anchors and cleaning, and the 48" makes a great rappel setup. I also have the 24", but I think it's a bit too short for clipping into anchors. It really makes you to get your waist to the anchor, you're at a more comfortable distance with the 30".

Another great product by Sterling. Super durable nylon keeps you locked in to clean a route or even assist you on those harshly located draws. Hard to say something bad about a product you trust your life with but just another great product by sterling. I prefer the 24 inch slings myself but a good mix helps for all situations. 12 inchers were a little to short for me but the 24's give me space to get all of my ducks in a row at the top of top routes. Get some today and be safe out there!

I use these primarily to make alpine draws, along with some CAMP Photons. For that purpose and for general anchor building, they're hard to beat for the money.

I bought this to use as an emergency rappel harness. Throw it in my pack when I'm going into big terrain and might need to bail off the objective but I don't want to haul my harness and other gear up. The wider width makes it slightly more comfortable on the legs and hips. Sterling makes a great product, this is no exception.

These double length (48") runners are my favorite sewn nylon slings. They’re useful when you want the dynamic properties of nylon versus the essentially static spectra or dyneema varieties of slings. I use these slings for a rappel extension by girth hitching it onto the belay loop of my harness and then tying an overhand knot in the middle of the sling. I put the belay device at the mid point with a locking biner and put another locking biner on the end of the sling for use as a personal anchor. I also use these double length slings as a ‘sliding x’ to connect pieces of an anchor. I like to carry these over the shoulder and across the body, clipped end to end with a non-locker. They don’t interfere with single length slings over my other shoulder and can be removed separately by unclipping the biner and pulling.

Great quality and price. Use them for all kinds of purposes: belay anchor building, personal anchor, extensions, etc. A little bulky, but it doesn't bother me at all.
