Well thought out, like the material. My concern was with grommet placement and the fact they are paper thin. A couple of mine were off the edge of the material, kind of a quality control issue? In the end, it's a low cost poncho that serves the purpose and a little more.

WELL pleased with the poncho. Had no problem with neck size, I wear a size 7 cap, or snaps tearing out as mentioned in other reviews. The key point is that is sheds water like a duck's back. Two days after it arrived, I stood/sat in a heavy downpour for 20 minutes and remained dry.

Not the real deal. You may get a couple of uses out of it. But it is definitely disposable gear. Not sure it is 100% waterproof but it is not even close to what we were issued in the Corps!

It is not military issue. It is reasonably well made. It has a built-in drawstring that doesn't do anything. Overall it is a useful rain poncho, similar to many commercial products.

So many uses for this little thing. I always have one, regardless of Gore Tex outerwear.
