    Default Woobies (poncho liners)

    I've never seen one in person, but these seem to be loved by darn near everyone.

    I'm on the hunt for a few for the vehicles and for my bob.

    I use them on the bed all summer for a cover if it cools down

    They are great for a lot of things, except as an actual liner for a poncho. Must have for camping since it rolls up nicely.

    Probably not the cheapest ($24.99), they have woodland as well. I usually buy my wool shirts from these guys, they haven't steered me wrong yet:

    Surplus store in Englewood has them $34.99

    Speaking of wool.... they have something similar to the Italian military wool blankets I really love them!

    The Kifaru woobie is $150, but worth every goddamn penny. Packs light, stuffs down well, and is very, very warm. Definitely warmer than a normal woobie.

    Always just called them liners. Now that said they were always nice to have. In the Medical Corps we used them with the old casualty blankets. I will say that the swiss poncho (listed as an add-on) is one big/heavy SOB compared to the old US poncho but your not going to get wet in it and for $9 I have a couple.

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    I did for one night out side of the shelter half at Camp Pendelton in Boot. Other than that never again for its intended purpose. I love the damn things though, best combination pillow/blanket ever invented.
