MIL-TEC OD RIPSTOP WET WEATHER PONCHO

The Mil-Tec OD Ripstop Wet Weather Poncho is a classic military-style rain poncho built to shrug off downpours, double as a field-expedient shelter, and pack down small enough to live in the bottom of a ruck or daypack. Modeled on the timeless GI poncho silhouette, it pulls easily over uniforms, plate carriers, hunting layers, or street clothes — making it an everyday-carry essential for outdoorsmen, preppers, hikers, hunters, festival-goers, and tactical gear enthusiasts alike.

Cut from 100% polyester ripstop with a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating, the fabric resists tearing and delivers a 5,000 mm head of water rating — more than enough to keep wearers dry through prolonged rain, sleet, and wet brush. The integrated hood features an adjustable drawcord to seal out wind and water, while a front zip-and-snap neck closure makes it quick to throw on and take off without removing a pack or helmet.

Built for the Field, Built to Sell

Generous 82×59 inch (approx. 210×150 cm) coverage drapes well past the hips and over a loaded backpack, keeping gear and the wearer protected. Six brass eyelets and press studs at the corners and edges allow the poncho to be staked out as a tarp, bivouac roof, or ground cloth — and two ponchos can be snapped together to create a simple two-person A-frame shelter, a perennial favorite trick among bushcrafters and military reenactors.
