Quick Overview

The Rothco Reversible Poncho provides robust, 100% waterproof protection for an individual and their carried equipment. Its primary tactical function is its reversible design, allowing the user to rapidly switch between a low-visibility exterior for concealment and a high-visibility yellow interior for emergency signaling or roadside safety.

Field Application Steps

  1. Select and don the poncho with the appropriate color (low-vis or high-vis) facing outward based on the mission.
  2. Cinch the drawstring hood to create a weather-tight seal around the head and neck, ensuring vision is not impaired.
  3. Fasten all side snap closures to fully secure the garment, preventing ingress from wind and rain.
  4. When necessary, reverse the poncho to the High-Visibility Yellow side for emergency signaling or enhanced conspicuity.
  5. Thoroughly inspect for damage before packing and ensure the poncho is completely clean and dry before long-term storage.
