I will say that a properly sewn (and padded) harness is FAR superior to a field expedient swiss seat, but my assumption was, based on context, that a harness was not what the original poster wanted.
I use a Black Diamond Bod harness myself. It is comfortable and secure. In the winter, on moutaineering trips, I have worn it loosely over my clothing and tightened it up when needed for actual protection. The alpine bod is a version that does away with the gear loops and padding on the assumption that it will be used over heavy alpine mountaineering clothing anyhow.
Mountain Gear is a great online and catalog outlet. I buy much of my stuff through brick and mortar businesses though. I like to put my hands on stuff before laying out money, especially climbing gear where my life would be on the line.
