go climbing harness, look on REM, MEC sites, cheap and really good models. make sure you get quick adjustable legs, I made the mistake of not. changes over the season of closes, layering, etc.

I too changed to a black diamond climbing harness and a tether. Much lighter and more flexible/practicle for shots from the tree. Both deer I got this year so far would have been not possible with my old HSS vest or SOP harness. Another plus is, in an emergency you would be hanging facing the tree rather than hanging by the nap of the neck facing away from the tree 6' below the stand

I notice you’re using a Lone Wolf Stand... The original Safety Belt that came with the stand is the one I’m currently using l. It’s grey and the leg straps have J-Hooks that slide under and hook on the waist band area. Works pretty good for me as it’s pretty minimalist and doesn’t get in the way of clothes /shooting etc... I feel like “fit” is a big thing so hopefully you can try on whichever model you’re considering... Some of them will bind, pucker, rub, click in various areas that drives me nuts. Certainly worth the money to find a comfortable, safe harness that works for you, and not against you...
