Does this poncho work with the USGI poncho liner?

Yes, but, do your research.Just don't get some Chi-Com knock off "GI Style" poncho liner to go with this Chi-Com knock off "Replica Army" poncho.

Dear Mr McFarland, unfortunately I don't know what is USGI poncho liner, but I can guarantee that this poncho is pretty good to the extent that a very portable nylon poncho can be.

When I bought mine, I didn't hear or read anything about a USGI poncho liner.

This was never intended to keep you warm while using the poncho to keep dry while on the move. Tied into the poncho the liner makes for a dual purpose sleeping bag. That was the intended purpose. These blankets in the field are worth their weight in gold. Many times while out on training missions, I left the issue sleeping bag and used the poncho liner/poncho for shelter and sleeping in. When rolled up together, and tied onto the rucksack, it is as small as 4 inches around and 8 inches long weighing less than a pound. (compared to the 10inch round by 16 inch long issue sleeping bag weighing in at about 10 lbs) This was never intended to keep you warm while using the poncho to keep dry while on the move.

If your definition of "backpack" is a small one yes. If you expect to put bed roll, sleeping bag, tent etc attached to a backpak then no. Very nice poncho for the money.

We were issued a poncho to help stay dry. That was the poncho. To make a light weight sleeping bag, good for slightly cool or just more comfortable to the skin than the plastic poncho foldered over. you put the liner into the poncho. I sprung for the rain gear pants and jacket as the poncho sucked for keeping off the rain. I kept and used the poncho liner AKA "woobie" as a light weight blanket. Never loan out your woobie. Only let you significant touch it for a few seconds and then make them buy their own. If you marry, make sure your preneptual has that your retain the woobie.

Yes it will, no problem. There are separate sleeves/compartments or else I would have never tried it. I fit a Zelda 3DS XL system AC adapter and a Neo Geo handheld system in bag all at the same time.

No. It appears the base of the Bandaloom is too wide both flat and on its side to fit our 'To Go' model even with the dividers rearranged. We are working on a product to fit both the Cra-Z-loom, Fun Loom and Bandaloom. Thank-you for contacting us with your questions prior to ordering.

No it does not. It is a overlap meaning you fold the top in a few inches so there are 2 layers holding the liner in place under the top.

I looked on the seller's website as well as conducting a general internet search and didn't find any poncho liners made specifically to complement this poncho. Because of its unique shape, I doubt any generic poncho liners would work either. I wish you the best!

Because I like this poncho better than my other two mil-spec ones, I'm careful to NOT let it brush up against burrs or picker-bushes because I fear they might pull the threads and start it fraying. If you're in need of something durable enough to handle being exposed to rough materials directly on the ground, I'd strongly recommend using a standard rain poncho as a barrier between this poncho liner and anything it might come in contact with. If you're not open to using a rain poncho, then maybe cut a small section out of a larger tarp and use that as a protective barrier instead.

Carpe...I don't use the stuff sack for the poncho. I either fold it back up into the hat part of the poncho or I fold it in such a manner to fit on the bottom of my backpack. I use the sack that the poncho came in for my water filter. Bye the way, this is a great poncho. I hike a lot since I retired and what I like about it the most is when it starts to rain I pull it off the bottom of my pack and slip it on. Don't have to pull my pack off to get to it and it fits really well over me and my pack. Hope these ideas help. Just use the sack for something else.

No. It looks like it does, but it does not. I have had to return this item because I was looking for the pouches AND loops. (Doesn't work well without the loops.)

Yes! The liner comes out just as shown in the picture. It works great for both uses.

It doesn't and never has. It's always just been a lightweight, warm comforter that we can scrunch down into our pack. The corner ties can secure the liner to the grommets of the poncho to make a sleeping bag. I suppose, though, the name is deceptive (Liner, Wet Weather, Poncho -- the Army's distinctive way of putting all of the adjectives after the noun ...). Not the first time nor the last for GI gear, I suppose.

if you have the Tek Lok attachments it works on all those. If you have the design that is permanent on the belt you can not use it. I hope this helps with your purchase.

Yes, mine did. It Attaches with velcro on the right side of the picture shown and wraps around 1/2. It is a nice addition for better concealment in light clothing

Yes it does. You are able to tuck the zipper in and seal the plastic and the it has a Velcro enclosure.

Yes but I was not happy with the product at all. It fit way too big. It gathered and had creased all on the top. I will never buy this liner again. It seemed defected and oversize. I hope this helps.
