The Rothco G.I. Type Rip-Stop Poncho handles the rain on the trail and keeps working after you reach camp. Durable polyester rip-stop with a PU coating shields against wet weather, while an adjustable drawstring hood and dual 2-snap side closures add defense against rain and wind. When the weather clears, the grommeted corners let the 56 x 90 inch poncho double as a tarp or ground cover, so one piece of gear covers two jobs in your pack.

Why it works:

  • Rain gear that doubles as camp gear: Pack one item instead of two: grommeted corners let you rig it as a tarp, a ground cover or an emergency shelter.
  • Holds up on rough ground: Rip-stop polyester is built to withstand harsh terrain, giving long-lasting use outdoors.
  • Waterproof protection at hood and sides: The adjustable drawstring hood and dual 2-snap side closures give extra defense against the rain and wind.
  • Room over your pack: One size fits most men and women, with additional space to cover a backpack or crossbody bag.
  • A color for your setting: Six options cover solids and camouflage: Black, Olive Drab, Coyote Brown, Woodland Camo, ACU Digital Camo and Woodland Digital Camo.
