Rip-Stop technology in Helikon US poncho
Rip-stop is a special weave made of polyester (or other material) that is resistant to tearing. It is characterized by the presence of thicker transverse and longitudinal fibers between thinner ones, which means that the material does not rip further if damaged. As a result, you don't have to worry that your garment will quickly deteriorate, for example, in rough terrain.
