These were a perfect addition to our survival bags we leave in autos. I chose due to the bright color.
I took one out and tried it on and they are well made with thick material, unlike the other thin mylar blankets.
I tested it outside which is freezing temperatures, and it definitely works great.
They're much thicker mylar and stay on your body while still allowing freedom of movement. I'm going to order some more.
We pulled them out during an unexpected downpour at Mt. Rainier and they were totally waterproof and pretty easy to move around in.
Free your hands to do other critical things while keeping warm. Never chase wind-blown blankets again.
We combined the warmth of a mylar blanket with the mobility of a poncho. Its hooded design protects your head from critical heat loss, helping to keep hypothermia at bay.
Foil colored mylar sheet side is great for signaling search and rescue.
Break out this poncho at the game, amusement park, concert, or tailgate. Keep these handy for car emergencies, first aid, hunting, camping, fishing, tactical bugout bags, and hiking gear.
26-micron mylar provides max tear resistance. Competing blankets are made of 12-micron thin and brittle mylar.
Our patent-pending design is 2x thicker than other blankets and works to help you retain 90% of body heat, even in the direst of circumstances.
I’m a big guy, 6’ 250#, will this work for me?
Definitely! I am a bigger guy 6.3' 300# and I have plenty of room. You will love it!
Are these ponchos one-time use or reusable?
Our ponchos are made of thick 26-micron mylar which makes them very durable. Most regular emergency blankets are only 12-micron. When taken good care of, most customers get at least 2 uses out of them. Simply fold the poncho up after use and it will be ready for the next event. In a rougher environment, customers use it one-time only.
Are these individually packaged to be easily stored?
Yes, each poncho is individually packaged in a Ziplock bag about the size of a deck of cards (5 x 3.25 inches) for easy storage.
Will this keep you warm bare skin to material?
Yes, it will, however having some layer of clothing will greatly improve the comfort as the clothes add insulation to keep the reflected heat in.
How long and wide are these ponchos?
FOLDED: 5 inches height x 3.25 inches width; OPEN/SPREAD OUT: 46 inches height (hood to bottom) x 49 inches width (sleeve to sleeve)
How noisy are they?
They are notably quieter than a regular emergency mylar blanket. The thickness of our ponchos makes the material much quieter.
When worn on the silver side out, is it still rainproof?
Yes. Moreover, if your goal is heat retention, I suggest that the silver side is inside to retain up to 90% of body heat, keeping you warm and safe. If your goal is to increase your visibility, you can wear the silver reflective side out.
