Poncho liner (known in the military as the woobie) is a piece of fabric that goes underneath your poncho to make it warmer.
We just have to realise that the poncho liner [ called a "Tropical Blanket" in Australia] is made to an old, old standard and as cheaply as possible. Let’s not forget, the polyester material isn’t stretchable as nylon. Helikon-Tex has sacrificed a fraction of the durability to improve the overall water resistance. Bottom Line To start with, the material used by Viper is top-notch. It’s 100% ripstop nylon that feels rugged and offers solid waterproofing. It’s worth pointing out that different sleeping bags have different fits. Some are much roomier than others, but when you get down to the ultralight bags they’re often pretty tight. Changing position or even just turning over can mean thrashing about like an insect trying to escape its chrysalis, and some campers simply can’t get a good night’s sleep this way. Cost
Wear Your “Sleeping Bag” Camping
On the whole, a heavy-duty poncho that’s good for woodlands as well as the mountains. What Needs Improvement This poncho is made from a softshell fabric that’s 86% polyester and 14% spandex. It has a polyester liner and the seams are taped for full waterproofing. The material is also breathable and that adds to the overall comfort levels.
Water Bottles and Flasks Some would say that Water is the most important thing when it comes to being out in the wild for any period of time. There are many methods of collecting, purifying and carrying water in the field and its important that you choose the right gear for the type of outing that you are doing – Depending on load-carrying if you are on foot or in a vehicle and many other factors. Here at Wood to Water, we have a wide range of purifying, collecting and carrying water. All the equipment we have chosen is tried and tested by our team.Rain suits have bad ventilation (you’ll sweat a lot) and you won’t be able to make a shelter out them. The material is ripstop polyester that feels durable. Helikon-Tex doesn’t mention the waterproof rating of the material. But users found it very effective in heavy rains. Moreover, it also dries fast. Ask a friend to take your measurements while standing in a straight and relaxed position without shoes. Remember that the tape measure should not be pulled too tight around the body but not be too loose either. A too big or a too-short poncho will affect your mobility in the wilderness. It may flap around or get caught in branches or bushes. Note, the water resistance of the material is marked as 5000mm. In addition, all the seams are sealed. That makes it perfect for use in heavy rains.
Known in Army slang as a “woobie,” the quilted poncho liner has been a veterans’ favorite since it first saw use in Vietnam. Versatile and practical, you can wear it, sleep under it, or sit on it for a picnic. God forbid, you could even actually use it as a poncho liner. But: I recommend to every beginner to start during the summer with just the poncho. In my opinion it is necessary to learn that skill as well as all the other old fashioned techniques. When you think about it, this makes pretty good sense. Down filling in particular insulates best when it’s allowed to puff up, yet in the case of a sleeping bag, half of that expensive insulation is crushed flat by your bodyweight. If you’re not really making the most of it, you might as well cut it — especially if you’re using a high-quality insulated sleeping pad to keep you warm underneath. If you ask me - a waterproof poncho should be a mandatory piece of gear for every survivalist. If you're serious about survival and prepping, that is. Without a doubt, military-grade ponchos are one of the best choices in terms of durability. The USGI poncho looks plain but is designed as per the field gear technology used in the US military.
BRAND
If you want to go for camping in the snow of course you need a second solution. But most people start camping in good weather conditions and even old foxes often prefere that.
