A fitting (1) for a harness, such as a trapeze harness for a sailboat is disclosed. The fitting comprises: a first part (2) secured to or securable to a harness, a second part (3) connectable to a tether, and a mechanism (30) to releasably inter-connect the first and second parts. The mechanism (30) comprises a plurality of locking members (43) each having a rounded or tapered locking part, configured to be received within a respective locking aperture (29) located on the second part. A locking element (41) is provided which is moveable between a locking position and a release position and is configured to urge each locking member into a position in which its locking part is received within a respective locking aperture (29) when the locking element is in the locking position. This enables the first part (2) and the second part (3) to be releasably locked together.
