The material is thick and strong, it does not soak through. Very nice Phantomleaf WASP I Z3A camouflage, it really works well in a green forest, already at a dozen meters. Of course, as long as you don't move.
Constructed from durable nylon, the rain poncho offers dependable protection against rain and dampness. The RipStop fabric structure delivers both lightweight comfort and exceptional resistance to tearing and abrasion. Enhanced with an inner rubber coating, the poncho achieves superior waterproof performance, shielding the wearer even in challenging weather environments.
Every seam on the poncho is thoroughly taped, effectively blocking moisture from seeping through the material's connections. Featuring a practical drawstring, the hood can be precisely adjusted for both head coverage and optimal defense against wind and precipitation. Equipped along the edges are metal eyelets and snaps, enabling a range of adaptable applications, including attaching two ponchos together for an expanded protective area.
Universal size ensures comprehensive coverage for both the wearer and their backpack, making the poncho highly adaptable for both brief excursions and extended outdoor adventures. The poncho’s design allows for swift conversion into an emergency shelter—simply detach the material and suspend it using the supplied mounting cords.
When packed, the poncho is highly compact, taking up minimal space and fitting easily into a backpack’s side pocket.

Camouflage Woodland
Woodland, often referred to as U.S. Woodland or M81, is a renowned camouflage design first adopted by the US Armed Forces in the early 1980s, stemming from the original ERDL pattern. Serving as the primary camouflage for the US military for over twenty years, it remained in standard use until the close of the 2000s' first decade. Distinguished by its oversized, asymmetrical shapes in green, brown, beige, and black, the pattern delivers effective concealment and disruption, particularly suited to forested environments. Its proven versatility and wide recognition have led to the creation of many adaptations, now featured in the uniforms of more than 60 armed forces worldwide. The influence of this pattern has extended far beyond its military roots, making a significant mark on civilian fashion trends as well.

I chose this poncho as a simple protection against rain while hiking in the forest. You just put it on and you won't get wet, and the Woodland camouflage blends well with the forest surroundings. A big advantage is that a backpack easily fits under the poncho, so your back doesn't get soaked like with a jacket. The downside is that in strong wind, without proper fastening, the poncho starts to move and can be annoying. Additionally, when you’re on the move, it quickly gets stuffy under the poncho, especially during intense walking. Overall, it’s a solid option for rain, as long as you’re aware of its characteristics.

The poncho worked great, it protected perfectly against rain and wind. It is well made, durable, and reasonably priced. I recommend this model to everyone.

Provides effective protection against rain and wind during travel, walks, and in the field. The material is solid, resistant to tearing from branches or sudden movements, and offers good water protection. It's easy to put on, doesn't restrict movement, and allows you to use equipment or move around comfortably without any trouble. When folded, it takes up very little space, so it's easy to keep as a spare in your backpack. Ideal for sudden weather changes when you need quick and reliable protection without unnecessary extras.

A few words about my new rain poncho. I chose this poncho because it provides the best protection from rain and wind, as well as from the cold, since it is coated with a special rubber layer on the inside. This makes it a bit more rigid, but it will work perfectly on cycling routes. Just in case, I bought an extra liner, a "must-have" set if you have to sleep outdoors in winter. I recommend it!

Well made, very good camouflage, lots of loops, and excellent protection against rain. Thanks to the eyelets, it can also be used as a tarp. It's quite heavy, but at this price, it's hard to expect everything. It's an indispensable thing!
-
A really well-made poncho from Mil-Tec at a great price. Really good workmanship, a hood, ripstop material, and waterproofing—everything you need. It's not heavy.

Despite my terrible opinion of this company's products, I decided to buy something from them one last time, because of the camouflage (phantomleaf only shared the pattern with two companies, including mil-tec) and surprisingly, I wasn't disappointed. After sealing the seams on the hood, nothing leaks, the poncho is quite large and the buttons seem really solid. Unfortunately, the cover literally falls apart in your hands, with the seams ripping just from... taking the poncho out for the first time. But aside from the terrible case and lack of seam sealing, the poncho is actually quite nice. For your own convenience, it's worth impregnating it with some spray before use (the material is waterproof, but not hydrophobic, so in heavy downpours it can eventually start to let water through) and sealing the seams. Then, for this price, you get solid protection from the rain for both yourself and your backpack. A small disclaimer for taller people: I am just over 180cm tall and the poncho reaches a little below my knees, so it's worth having waterproofed trousers and shoes, otherwise your calves and feet will get soaked.

A solid poncho for good money. The material is strong and durable. The WASP I Z3A camouflage does a great job. When unfolded, the poncho can be used as a small tarp or a shelter roof.
-
The camouflage is awesome. It provides great protection from the rain, which is crucial (although sometimes there is a bit of condensation on the back). It also offers decent thermal comfort. It's a bit heavy and after wearing it for more than 2 hours, you start to feel it.
-
Great poncho, protects against every downpour. Well made, no defects, rubberized underside. Satisfied with the purchase. I recommend it to those who are undecided, the poncho is worth buying.
-
Very good quality craftsmanship. It's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive poncho, but it does its job. The cover makes it easier to fold and carry in a backpack.
-
An armored poncho made of rubberized material. The actual waterproofness surpasses other ponchos and most tarps. It will withstand any downpour and can be used as a groundsheet under a tarp without the risk of getting damaged. Relatively heavy, but that's the trade-off. I recommend the product and the store Militaria.pl.

-
Very good poncho, well made, solid rubberized material. The poncho should last a long time. 100% waterproof. It is a bit heavy when folded, but it's worth having something solid that won't let you down in heavy rain.
