I find that the most noise is from magnetic closure when I accidentally let go or don’t take the time to close it slowly. I haven’t noticed noise from the material itself. I love the Marsupial but the non magnetic is too bulky and the magnets sound like a gong when in the silence of the woods.
Best non magnetic for me to this point has been the Kifaru, though it’s got some quirks too.
It’s one of those items I’m always looking for that does it better.
If you're hunting out of a tree stand or still hunting... Rick Young bino strap. I don't know why you would want to use a cumbersome and noisy pouch. Ed F
I love the marsupial gear magnetic harness. However, I agree with what others have said about it. It squeaks with Swaros and the magnetic closure snapping shut if you are not careful when closing is loud. I have found the SG sentinel to be pretty quiet and is a great harness all around.
