These are very practical matches for outdoor gear. They are securely sealed in waterproof packaging, so they can be safely stored in a backpack. They work well even in stronger wind and tougher weather conditions, and the intense flame helps to start a fire quickly. A small but very useful addition for trips and camping.

Very nice matches for when it's windy or raining. There's plenty of matches but I use them when normal matches aren't working. Comes with a little bit of cotton to help light the fire which is nice.
-
The matchbox was carefully packaged and looks aesthetically pleasing. The matches seem sturdy and have plenty of material for ignition. The set includes cotton wool, and the striking surface has been placed in several spots both inside and outside the box. Bought for emergencies and hopefully I will never need it.
-
With these storm matches, you can reliably and safely light a fire in almost any conditions. They are specifically designed to withstand even extreme weather conditions. The storage container also keeps the entire set dry. I recommend it!
-
Great matches. They don't absorb water; both the sticks and the striking surfaces remain dry after being submerged. They are sturdy, have a lot of combustible material, and have never gone out on me in the rain.
-
The packaging says 'perfect match' and it’s true, these matches are really ideal. They have a lot of ignition compound, and the screw cap with gasket protects the contents very well. Additionally, inside the container there's a spare striker placed under the lid, which always stays dry even after contact with water. I am fully satisfied with the purchase.

The box of matches was carefully packed and looks aesthetic. The matches are sturdy, with plenty of ignition material. The set includes cotton wool, and the striker is placed on several surfaces both inside and outside the box.
-
Great storm matches, they contain a lot of flammable material. The packaging is sturdy and hard to damage. Additionally, there is cotton wool inside, which is a huge advantage.
-
Excellent quality match that works very well in water and in damp situations. The case is sturdy and well-sealed, although a little heavier than its slightly cheaper counterpart on the site. I recommend adding an ignition device to start the fire.
-
Good quality match and case as well. Heavier than the equivalent sold on the site, which is a bit cheaper, but it seems more robust. I recommend taking some material with you to light a fire, for example, in the cap.
-
I bought these matches as a spare source of fire, as a supplement to a firesteel. Above all I appreciate the solid, waterproof packaging. The extra striker under the lid is a great solution. The matches burn long enough. I showed my mother-in-law how they work – she was impressed that they didn't go out even after being thrown into water.
-
Great storm matches, burn for a long time. In my set the stick sticks out a bit, so you need to be careful with your hands, but thanks to this they burn longer. They are a bit tricky to light, but with several strikers they manage.
-
Superb. They ignite quickly and easily. Immediate fire is enough to light up everything needed. They don’t go out from the slightest breeze. The packaging is very airtight, you have to be careful not to crush it, because it’s just plastic after all – if it breaks, you’ll need to move the matches into a plastic bag.
-
Great storm matches. They contain a lot of ignition substance. The packaging is durable, not easy to damage. The extra wad of cotton wool inside is a huge plus.
-
Compact, airtight packaging with strong matches inside. They burn very well, although they burn out quite quickly. The price is relatively high, and there are only 25 pieces, which is not a large amount.
