Perfect
Terrific. Was exactly what I was hoping for. Shall work out great for it's intended purpose. Like the weight and compactness, unlike the ones I was issued in the late 70's and early 80's.Hopefully it'll last for a few years. Seems lower maintenance than the one's back then. And highly doubt it'll crack and peel, like they did.

True MilSpec poncho
True Mil Spec size and multicam pattern. Build quality and materials are as close as can be to a true GI poncho. Better than most Chinese copies on Amazon.

And climate weather poncho
Not rubber coated but you know I have to take it out in the rain and see if it works. Looks good just doesn't look heavy

Not too heavy nor too light.
Perfect for rainy days when you don't want to pack a regular rain jacket. I bicycle alot and I keep this and a few other things in my pack for quick access. You can layer and still get a decent backpack under it and still cover your butt. Get the woobie and make a sleeping bag or carry some paracord and use to make a quick shelter. There's a lot of functionality to this poncho.

Love it
I still have my military woodland camo poncho and liner from the 80’s and they’re still as functional as when issued after decades of extremes. This was purchased for whenever folks pop in to visit with limited gear and I’m liking this newer marpat pattern hoping it proves to be as durable as what’s never failed.

Well made, versatile piece of gear
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 love my woobie
I take my woobie everywhere, keeps you warm when cold and cold when warm it’s a magical thing. Recently used the woobie and a comforter in 30 degrees for a week and slept fine aslong as the woobie was involved just the comforter and I was shivering. The poncho is fantastic also, get you a nice log and get all sat down you’ll be dry through any rain/snow storm
