Haul bags don't get any tougher than the Metolius Half Dome. They are made from abrasion resistant material so this haulbag will last for up to 20 big wall routes unlike some other nylon alternatives. Durability is the key to these Haulbags... The main seam is RF welded, forming a leak-proof seal that is stronger than the fabric itself. Also, all structural stitching is covered with 3" webbing and re-stitched.
The Metolius 5 Step Aider is made from 25mm flat nylon webbing that is reinforced with Biothane (the stuff good haul bags are made from) to stiffen the steps, ensuring they always stay open for easy foot placement. The Aider has a classic, staggered, triangular step construction with useful sub-steps in the 2 top steps. This 5 Step Aider is tough, durable and functional with a reinforced clip-in point, full-strength grab loop and a dedicated clip-in point at the bottom for enchaining aiders without collapsing the bottom step.
The Metolius 8 Step Aiders is a ladder-style construction with 8 steps for maximum ease of use. Biothane™ step stiffeners ensure that the steps always stay open.

It also has a dedicated clip-in point at the bottom for enchaining aiders without collapsing the bottom step. For body weight only.
