The pad means are preferably constructed of rubbery material with Neoprene being illustrated. A standard is carried adjacent the headpiece and extends upwardly and rearwardly thereof for carrying a steel band which engages the tree, pole or similar structure to be climbed for exerting a wedging action between the pads and the tree resulting in a gripping action which will support the user.
