Definitely new, and works a treat as a poncho and as a ground sheet. It has a pretty thick rubbery texture to it, seems to be pretty much impermeable.

The poncho arrived in the stated time. It was advertised as brand new and I believe this to be the case, but it had a small tear in the ripstop right on the shoulder. Two of the press studs had not been set properly (they work but are sharp edged because of it)To be honest it didn't seem to be well made. The ties are quite thin. I must say that I did make contact and had an email straight away to say that If I returned it and it was a genuine fault they would give a postage refund and a replacement poncho. I declined this invitation and bought a good quality ex military unused one elsewhere . I kept the first one and now use it to cover the BBQ.

Brilliant bit of kit , I can now cook out doors in the British weather without getting drenched and they also double up as deck chair covers when we crash out in the van

Wow!, 'as new' premium condition!, day after next delivery!!, above 'n beyond service from Yvette 'n team!!! :D , multipurpose poncho 'n tarp!, the ripstop fabric for waterproof's is a must have in my opinion, also a quality tarp/shelter or camouflage your thing's (i.e. pushbike cover so it doesn't get stolen 'n keep's bike dry!), majorly chuffed!, North East Yorkshire coast here i come...

Poncho up to standard as advertised. Durable and tear-resistant, dries in minutes after showers. Very easy to bag up when done. Brilliant delivery and service. Ordered on a Saturday, product dispatched Monday and delivered over gate (as requested) first thing Tuesday morning. Have purchased from site previously and will continue to do so with great pleasure.
