Le Produit assure une bonne protection contre les intempéries, l'utilisation en "Tarp" est facilité grâce aux d’œillets de bonne taille en nombre suffisant. Le tissu est correct, les boutons pression sont difficiles à manipuler car trop durs et la qualité de réalisation des coutures très insuffisantes

I bought this poncho to have something that I could use as rain gear, but also as a ground cloth for lightweight camping without a tent. This rain poncho fit the bill. Spread out on the ground, it fit perfectly for me under a 10x7 A-line tarp set up and kept my sleeping bag dry (I’m 5’6”). It was easy to shake out in the morning and wear. It was a little big on me, but it’s a poncho, so that really doesn’t matter. There is lots of room for your backpack or anything else you want to carry under it. I liked how sturdy it was despite how thin and lightweight the material was. I didn't use the cord for the waist, but it’s there when you want it. This should last much longer than my previous ponchos.

Just received this today. Poncho looks to be made of good rip-stop material. The side snaps are SUPER sturdy. After a mock-up emergency tent setup in the backyard, putting tension on all 4 corner grommets and 2 center grommets, no issues. Liner sinches down to about a 6”x6”x6” cube. Fill on the liner seems very generous but time will tell how it’ll hold up. Ties are great. Material feels good. Excellent value for this poncho/liner combo. Without any real world use yet, can’t speak for its durability but I will update review if anything changes.

This item was delayed in arriving but the customer service was incrediable in terms of remedying the situation and offering solutions. The ponch itself is great - very versatile and great quality. Would highly recommend.

This is a good product - especially for the price. I have used the Helikon-Tex poncho, Arcturus Poncho, genuine US military poncho, among others. This one has held up well considering the price. My last one has survived 2 1/2yrs of heavy use and is still in tact except for a few minor holes from sparks from a campfire.This poncho can be used with a woobie, and works well in that configuration for a sleep system. The poncho is lightweight and strong. I’ve had no issues with the fabric other than with one of the grommets ripping out when using the tarp for a raised shelter bed. This was nothing a bit of gorilla tape couldn’t fix.The poncho has good dimensions and can be used effectively in a plow point, a-frame, lean-to, or flying configuration. I’ve also used this poncho as a pack cover by draping it over my pack and then tying out two sides underneath my armpits to cover a 65l pack while backpacking in the Pacific Northwest in heavy rain conditions.This tarp packs away small and is a great addition to a kit for everything from a moisture barrier ground cover, to flying the poncho to provide overhead cover for a lunch stop. I would highly recommend this product as compared to other ponchos on Amazon. While I believe the Helikon-Tex poncho to be slightly superior - this one comes in a close second. Not to mention this one is readily available and in a variety of colors.If this poncho had increased stitching - especially around the grommets, this product would be 5 star in my opinion. Overall, you will be happy you purchased this product!Hope this helps!

Let me preface this review by saying I have seen some negative reviews from people comparing this to a US Army issue poncho. I would say it compares favorably to the real deal, aside from IR signature......and if you're worried about your IR signature you've got bigger issues than what poncho you're wearing. For the record, I own this poncho from USGI Industries, along with two Helikon-Tex ponchos, a stasher poncho from EMS, two different actual ORC Industries US Army issue ponchos, an Angolan military poncho, and a PSSLE from Wilderness Innovation (yes, I like ponchos). When it comes to the best of the bunch, the Wilderness Innovation kinda stands above the others. That being said, it's a hand made poncho from a small shop in Utah, so that's not surprising. What IS surprising, however, is how good this particular poncho from USGI industries is.This poncho is well made. The stitching is done well. The material is high quality. ALL of the seams are taped, and taped well. The grommets and snaps are all very high quality, and have been very robust. I tend to use this poncho a lot as it is roughly the same dimensions as an actual US Army issue poncho (same basic size, shape, etc), but substantially lighter. The US issue woobie ties right up no problem (the MARPAT woobie you see in one of the pictures is a USMC issue woobie made by Winston Salem Industries for the Blind). I have used it as a shelter more times than I can count, with zero failures. I have worn it in the rain and been completely dry. Out of every poncho I own, this is the one I grab the most believe it or not. Even the woobies they make are really nice (and substantially softer than the actual issue ones). All in all, for the price, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this poncho again.

I read some of the negative reviews and concede that these ponchos may be a little thinner and less rugged than genuine military issue, but they're also lighter, more compact and a fraction of the cost. Which for occasional backpacking, make them work better for me.I like that they are rip-stop and wider than most ponchos, (a full 62 inches), so in addition to keeping you dry while you're hiking, you can stretch a bit of para-cord between 2 trees and make a tent , or snap the two sides together to create a rainproof bivy over your sleeping bag. I bought 2 and they snap together beautifully to create a 2-person emergency bivy for my wife and I. My only disappointment is that there are no snaps at the bottom to close the bivy. If I can find 4 to 6 of the 2-sided snaps I'll add them myself. Or in an emergency, duct tape the bottoms together.Living in Colorado, I keep a small day-pack in my car at all times for those spontaneous hikes when we're driving through the mountains. 2 of these ponchos fit easily in my bag, along with packable down coats, thermolite underwear and a few other survival essentials. No one plans to get lost of have an emergency in the wilderness, but if you do, you'll be very glad you invested in these ponchos. If they ever offer them in Survival orange, I'll buy them again.
