Badger Outdoor Timber Poncho with tent function - Olive

A rain poncho that transforms into a semi-open tent. This lightweight, durable, and versatile gear is invaluable in the field. It is beneficial for wilderness adventures and as a piece of equipment stored in a car or bicycle pannier, offering rain protection when weather conditions change unexpectedly.

Constructed from durable polyester, the poncho's implementation of Rip-Stop weave significantly enhances its resistance against tears and physical damage. The material is treated with a layer of polyurethane (PU) to achieve water resistance of 5000 mm/m². The poncho features taped seams that increase the construction’s waterproofness and effectively limit moisture penetration.

The poncho's front features a zipper shielded by a Velcro flap, minimizing the chance of water and wind penetration. Velcro panels are situated on the sleeves, enabling patch attachment. A lashing loop at the hood's top reinforces the design, along with 5 peg loops positioned at the base and ends of the sleeves, allowing for secure ground fastening.

The poncho can serve as a semi-tent. To achieve this, use a branch or trekking pole as a central support and secure the edges to the ground with pegs. By combining two ponchos, you can form a closed tent where the sleeve openings function as ventilation windows, ensuring efficient air circulation.
