Defcon 5 Water Poncho Poncho - Vegetato

Rain poncho in Vegetato camouflage, with a practical hood with drawstring. Made of 100% polyester with Rip-Stop weave, characterised by tear resistance and providing protection even against heavy rain.

The poncho is made of durable polyester with a grammage of 200 g/m2. Thanks to the use of a Rip-Stop weave, it is durable and features increased resistance to tears and mechanical damage. For greater waterproofing of 5000 mm/m2 the model uses taped seams.

The hood is adjustable with two drawstrings, allowing it to be fitted to the user and helping keep it in place during windy conditions. Elastic cuffs limit water and gusts from getting under the poncho, while allowing freedom of movement.

The poncho will perform well on both shorter and longer trips into the field. It provides excellent protection from rain and at the same time is very lightweight. It will easily cover an adult together with a backpack. When folded, the poncho takes up little space and weighs significantly less than a standard rain jacket.

Vegetato is an Italian military camouflage introduced at the beginning of the 21st century as the standard camouflage of the Italian Armed Forces. The pattern is based on irregular, layered patches in shades of green, brown, beige and earthy red. Vegetato, also known as mimetico Vegetata or Italian Woodland, was created as a modern alternative to older woodland-type patterns. Thanks to its rich palette and well-thought-out arrangement of patches, this camouflage effectively breaks up the soldier's silhouette and performs well in varied natural surroundings - especially in areas covered with low and medium vegetation. Due to its character and colour scheme, Vegetato adapts well to conditions found in many regions of Europe, covering both Mediterranean and temperate climates.
