Hazard 4 MK.2 Poncho Villa Technical Soft-Shell Poncho (Color: Scorpion Black)

"I bought this poncho a while back before I ever started airsofting and while I didn't make the purchase through Evike, I still thought my experience could be of value to someone else considering this poncho for their loadout.

First thing is first: this poncho is NOT waterproof. it is only water RESISTANT and both you and your gear will be soaked if you're planning on using this in heavy rain or extended periods spent in rain. you can solve a lot of these issues with water repellant sprays if you know you're going to need to run this in wet weather.

With that out of the way, this ponchos build quality is actually amazing. I've owned it for at least two years now and have taken it through mostly sand and dirt on several occasions while camping and more recently airsoft and it still looks like the day I bought it. The materials used are super high quality and it is incredibly easy to store because it folds into its own front pouch. though, during use, this pouch can also be useful for storing other things (I've actually used it as a spare/secondary dump pouch on the field). It can also be used as a tarp and has clips around the edge so you can button it down.

Obviously a big selling point for this thing is appearance, and I've gotten plenty of compliments on the styling of it. It has spots for any patches that you might want to show off and it will look really well if you're running a tactical loadout.

Overall, It's pricey and I REALLY wish it was waterproof but at least the quality of the materials used is actually really high. while this poncho is definitely not indestructible, it can withstand a fair share of torture and I think that that can justify the price tag for some people.
