So what is the advantage of the rubbery ponchos over the nylon ponchos? ... other than providing super cool science projects on a hot summer day.
The Rubberized military versions are generally larger, truly waterproof and can make great shelters if necessary. That's at least why I gravitate toward them.
That was my thinking when I got it. Makes a great shelter in our cold wet climate. I haven't used it with a campfire yet, and have to admit that I'm curious about the melt factor. My unrubberized version just gets little pin holes in it sometimes.
