Summary:Harnesses and methods of their manufacture are disclosed. The harnesses include a structural sub-assembly for use in construction of a waist band of a harness, the structural assembly comprising two primary load-bearing elements (190, 192) and a semi-loadbearing flexible substrate sheet (122). Each primary load-bearing element (190, 192) is formed from elongate, flexible textile webbing that extends, typically in a loop, that passes through multiple apertures in the sheet to form a woven structure with the sheet (122). Lengths of the two primary loadbearing elements (or one primary load-bearing element and another component of the structure) extend from a centre line (C) of the sheet upon one another and form a structure having three or more layers including the sheet The sub-assembly can be constructed by mounting the sheet (122) on a jig and threading webbing components through apertures in the sheet prior to forming stitching to secure the webbing components.
