Poncho - Honeycomb Ripstop - New - Strong - xWide -Intro

Description

When we started looking for a wider native fabric to make extra wide ponchos we found this one, which has an added bonus, it's not only wider, it's also stronger. With hardly any additional weight it is stronger. Link http://wildernessinnovation.com/shelter/poncho-survival-shelter-xwide/

Not that our standard line of ponchos is weak, they are not, I've used/abused them for years with no problem, but hey this honeycomb ripstop nylon is extra strong. It's really in a category between our standard line and the HD series. Our main goal was to add 5" - 6" in width to a new line of ponchos, which we achieved with our new xWide series. Check out this new addition to our extensive line of ponchos. Also important is that all our accessories can be used as well. The Polartec fleece liners are available now in xWide for a custom fit with these ponchos. Don't forget that the xWide Ponchos can do all the same functions as all our other ponchos, use as a poncho, tarp, hammock, chair.

this is a poncho made out of our new 2.1 to 2.2 honeycomb weave fabric rips tough and this is this is in our this is in our ex wide series and so I just want to put this thing on and show you what it looks like so here it is on as you can three looks just like our other plexus the difference is the differences you see it goes clear down to my wrist and show you side-by-side comparison of the standard width which is represented by our coyote here and then our X wide as represented by our OD green right here gives me this gives me two and a half to three inches more more late doing York nice send out like this so here we are stretched out the coyote is our standard considered our standard size and the OD green here is our honeycomb X wide all in all it's the same kind of Pancho does everything all of our Poncho's do but adds just a little bit of wick to it which so so we'll look in five or six inches wider stretched out like this and it's three inches so almost exactly three inches lighter it's almost exactly three inches lighter from the coyote out to the edge of the OD x wide which also makes it a little bit deeper of a deeper that you're laying in when you set up as a hammock

that works works pretty darn nice also fiuza as a type of course you know it can cover just a little bit more area so like so here I want to show you the honeycomb pattern that's woven into here so instead of ripstop with squares this is ripstop with with the honeycomb it's basically that pattern adds some pattern add some dimensional stability the fabric so the honeycomb was woven out of 2.2 ounce thread so so you're actually getting a quite a bit beefier set up in here weaving all that in there so that makes this thing really for almost no extra weight really you're getting a poncho it's considerably stronger so we really like that idea this pattern is nice i mean it's it's sturdy it's tough you know I can nice and work my way through stuff like this all that you know I'm not going to really don't have that much to worry about tough huh banging tough little fabric here looking for an X wide that's what I'm talking about right here X wide get what you want right here man it's great this is pretty nice poncho you
