Pros & Cons

The swagman roll is an absolutely awesome piece of gear. Highly recommended for anyone needing a multi purpose piece of gear for bushcraft or outdoors. There's a lot of great survival/tactical gear i've had, but this is my favorite product of all of t... Read More
The helikon-tex swagman roll poncho works great. The hood tucks into a pocket and stays in place with velcro when using it in blanket mode. The toggles on the corners can be used to attach the blanket to a poncho, much easier than tying with strings.
Big pocket in the front is great for storing some lighter items. Saves alot of weight and room in backpack. I just wish it was a bit wider when zipped up.
Cons

Partners nicely with the rain poncho sold separately but also a really nice product
Shipping
Great product as always but amazing shipping as well
Packaging/appearance
Major improvement to the old school poncho liner the woobie
Competitiveness
Every military member would much rather have this than a standard woobie i will probably buy a second one eventually
A great piece of kit use it with my usgi poncho for overnight trips

Just worried the zipper may fail especially if you need to exit the bag quickly in the field since it seemed to catch some while opening when testing it

It compresses down to nothing and can be squished into the nooks and crannies of your bag

It was great for the 45 days i had it before my car was stolen with this in itπ tested it out by pouring water on it and used it as a sleeping bag very comfortable

Paired with a poncho there is no need for a lightweight sleeping bag or bivy
