    Thanks for the pics, HappyCamper! The poncho looks like a great fit with the sniveler. Also, thanks for posting this topic, I've got one of the ponchos on the way.

    The advert page here lists the weight at 9oz.

    DriDucks Poncho - 255.14 grams = 9 ounces
    Army Poncho - 600 grams = 21.1 ounces

    You're welcome! Yep, my scale says right at 9 oz. I'm hoping the combo works well. The coverage by the poncho couldn't be much better IMO. But I've not worn DriDucks out in the rain yet, so I'm not sure what to expect. And I do carry some duck tape with me which will help with any rips. This stuff is really light so I can see where I'll have to be careful.

    Does anyone know what size the poncho is?

    I don't mean fit, I mean the width and length. There are no specs on the two sites linked.
