Top-notch, used as an underquilt for a hammock during a night in the forest at around 6°C, it keeps you very warm and wraps around the hammock well. Then used on a cool morning as a poncho, then another night as a sleeping bag liner, perfect! It has become my indispensable partner for self-sufficient treks, even if it takes up a bit of space in the pack, it's worth it.

I ordered the Helikon Swagman Roll Basic - Olive Green poncho for my husband... Only advantages – comfortable, warm, and very versatile when used outdoors. I am grateful for the excellent product quality and professional service!

The Swagman is very warm, I use it for sleeping in a hammock in the summer. It takes up a lot of space in the backpack, but if you remove the compression sack, it can be packed in such a way that there is still some extra space left. If you are short on time or space, it can also be attached to the outside of the backpack with a carabiner.

Warm, absorb moisture, be careful with fire contact. The zippers are fine, tested at 0°C – everything works. Combined with a rain poncho, they create a great, lightweight set without unnecessary weight. Perfect for me!

Like other users, I use it when photographing animals and when hiking. It works great as an additional source of warmth. It takes up quite a lot of space in the backpack, but after packing it into a longer cover, it can be easily attached to the outside of the backpack.

A very practical piece of clothing for outings to the forest – I use it as a warmer while observing animals and as additional insulation under a hammock.

A well-made, warm, and practical product, versatile, definitely worth having, I recommend it.

I definitely recommend it. It works great as an extra layer for a sleeping bag, an emergency sleeping bag, or as insulation under a poncho for winter days. Very well and precisely sewn. It is light and has a compact size when packed. The order arrived the next day.
