Good enough for government work
About the same size as the issued one. It's VERY multicam as in it will be obvious it's not OCP. That's not really a problem for me though because who cares what my command thinks🤷♂️ #e4mafia. Overall seems sturdy enough to be a tarp like we all know these ponchos are. It comes with a stuff sack which I like more than I thought I would. If you're just trying to get by and keep CIF off your booty hole, this is the poncho for you 👍.p.s. If you're buying this because blue falcon done snatched your issued one, I feel you bro.Edit: I bought this like 6 months ago now. It has gone through 3 FTXs and has held up just fine. I think it's slightly smaller than the issued poncho. In this lawless land of having UCP camo TA 50 still be common place I have had no issues with this poncho and my leadership. Most people are jealous of it actually. I'd say I definitely got my money's worth.

Overall a good poncho
I purchased this poncho to include with my camping gear. After testing it during a recent rainy day, I am pleasantly pleased with the item. The multicam is not quite the same as my other gear, as the colors seem a little bolder; however, this is insignificant and not worth losing a star. After standing out in the rain for a while, I found I was completely dry underneath. It appears to breath well through the gaps on the side (in between the snaps). The material it's made from seems awfully thin, leaving me concerned about how well it would keep out the rain. Additionally, where the snaps are I was concerned about the fabric ripping as it tried to undo the snaps, which are very tight together. But, testing the snaps by undoing them and re-snapping them multiple times. I found the fabric seems to be holding up. As noted, the snaps are tight, but I believe this is a plus as I won't have to worry about the front and back of the poncho separating during windy days. Time will tell how well the poncho can handle the wear and tear of use in the outdoors. My only complaint, and the reason for only four stars, is the "sleeves" where your arms extend out of the poncho are really short. If I were to keep my arms out while working on anything, I would end up with soaked sleeves. I will have to look for a way to keep my arms dry while doing work. Otherwise, I would recommend this product.

Battle tested
I've recently taken this product to the field and used it as a poncho, an emergency shelter, a ground cover, and a sleeping bag along with the woobie they sell as well. It was amazing and helped as advertised in all of the configurations. I used it as an emergency shelter in a torrential downpour, and then a week later in a sand storm with 55+mph winds. I stayed as dry and clean as could be expected in those situations with cover only on two of four sides, but I am thoroughly impressed with the product. When put together with a second poncho, it was even able to be used as a make shift rain fly.When reaching out to Acme regarding questions with the product, they were quick to respond and handled my questions very promptly and to 100% satisfaction. I will gladly purchase other products from them in the future and highly recommend this product as well as others they sell.

Non Multicam
Not multicam as advertised. The photos on the website are multicam but the product I received is not. Totally different coloring.

good but could have been a bit thicker and need bigger face and neck hole

Better than the real deal.
This product is well-made and suits my needs perfectly. It seems to be higher quality than the poncho that I was issued, but now I can just leave it in my POV and know that I have adequate rain protection everywhere I go.

Great Quality
Took this out to the field and it does exactly what it is meant to do. It kept me dry and is larger than the standard issue poncho which helped when constructing makeshift tents out of them.

Great quality
Works like a charm. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a poncho that is similar to a issued one.
