Adventure Medical Kits says:
Be prepared for any condition with the SOL All-Weather Matches, designed to ignite in wind, rain, or snow. Each extra-thick match burns for up to 10 seconds, giving you a strong, reliable flame even when wet. The waterproof case includes multiple built-in strikers to ensure you can always light a match, plus 25 matches per pack for dependable performance. Compact and rugged, this kit is built for adventurers who need reliable fire-starting in any environment.
Our Verdict
The SOL All-Weather Matches are sturdy, long-burning matches designed to stay lit in wind and rain. The All-Weather Matches come housed in a waterproof case with three striker locations, including one on the rim, so at least one remains usable if the others get wet. The matches are coated in a thick varnish and burn for about 10 seconds, giving enough time to light damp tinder or small fuel.
They are best viewed as a dependable backup rather than a primary fire source, ideal for wet, cold, or high-wind situations where a lighter might struggle to ignite. The case is durable and easy to handle with gloves, and the bright colour makes it simple to spot in poor light. A simple, well-executed design that performs its task with quiet reliability when you need it most.
