Poncho liner question

Post by Rich Jordan »

I've had a commercial poncho liner for some time (Brigade Quartermaster) that I keep in the Jeep. Its like a light blanket, with enough fill that you can't really see through it though a bright light will be visible through it.

I just picked up some new wet weather poncho liners from USRO (Black Friday sale) and they are nearly translucent; you can see the camo pattern of the far side through the near side when backlit. The labels do say they have polyester fill but it must be very thin.

Are these translucent ones the genuine famous much-loved woobies? They certainly sold out quickly.

Wish I'd bought enough to send out to all the nephews at least.

Looks like the ones I just bought. You can also find Super Woobies.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

My woobie was lost in the fire. I really need to replace it soon.

Hmmm, prices are kinda steep.

I'll stick with my poncho liners.
