It is believed that primates learned to adapt to living in trees because there was less competition for food in the trees. They then evolved adaptations that made it easier to live high off of the ground.

Opposable hands and feet for gripping branches.

Strong, long tails for support and gripping branches.

More lean and whiplash-like muscles for quick bursts of power (jumping).

Long arms to help reach further branches.

Thats about it.

Primates are adapted to living in trees because their eyes give them the ability to see in 3D. Their eyes are located in the front of the head and can detect color as well.

A prehensile tail that acts as an extra hand/foot as well as opposable thumbs. All those things that make it easier to hold on!
