Our thoroughly modernized version of the classic military poncho has more in common with technical sport jackets than the old vinyl camping stand-by that usually comes to mind. An industry first, it should reintroduce a generation to the functional benefits that having no sleeves affords.

The poncho can be stuffed into its own front pocket for storage. It even has a vent for drying!

Advantages of Poncho vs. Jacket:

Fully covers the torso and most of legs

Fully covers packs, bags and equipment

Allows rain-free access to pockets/bags

Dry equipment or weapon manipulation

Can become a small make-shift tent

Two ponchos combine for a larger tent

Can be used as a seating/work surface

Quick on and off over layered clothing

Differences between Original vs MK2. (2020) PonchoVilla:
1. Attachment loops and snaps added on V. 2020 to allow for coupling of Fleece Poncho Liner (so they don't separate in windy conditions.)
2. Lasercut MOLLE added on the loop fastener on the pocket flap.
3. Same-color seam tape on the inside (already implemented on some of the later batches of the original design.)
