SaphiRoseExtra Thick Hooded Rain Poncho Double Layer Waterproof Raincoat Jacket for Men Women AdultsOEKO-TEX STANDARD 100

I bought the yellow color and it looks really nice. It is easy to keep into the bag provided which makes it convinent to bring around. I love it!It is large enough to cover me entirely to protect from the rain. It seems worth the costs given the other options I've seen out there. Only thing I don't like as much is the front pocket size. I would like one with higher height.

This rain poncho was excellent as we traveled to Alaska. Many compliments on design, large enough to keep me dry, well constructed, packs away tightly in its own bag. Love it!

We purchased this poncho for backpacking and camping. While we find its rain repellency and size to be good and reliable, in general, there are a few minor manufacturing quirks others might find useful prior to purchase. First, if you're an adult under 6ft tall and up to 250lbs, this will provide adequate coverage. It's not going to keep your shins or boots dry in a driving rain (that's what waterproof boots are for!), but if you button up the snaps along the sides (3 snaps per side), you should keep nice and dry. Unless, of course, you've got a big head or wear a ballcap. We found the head opening to be a little too snug to don the poncho while wearing a ball cap and glasses; though, once through, the hood provides ample coverage and the built-in visor helps keep the wet off the ball cap's brim. The side snaps are decently spaced apart, but their placement at the edge of the material makes us wary of pulling them open too fast. The chest pocket is sizeable and, to give you an idea, you could fit a couple decks of cards inside –maybe a phone, too. The material is light and that's great, except if the wind is really blowing; then, the material blows around a lot (even while snapped) and that presents some opportunities for an intruding drop or three. The forest camo poncho we purchased would probably work for hunting, too, though the rustling of the material (not as bad as plastic) could give up the game –along with the large white logo printed on the lower right corner. All told, it's a good poncho for the price. A slightly larger head opening, a slightly larger hood with drawstrings, a brim band, reinforced seams for the snaps, maybe an additional 4 inches of material for the arms and legs would be good; a drawstring at the waist and mid-thigh would all make this poncho perfect. Don't let this review dissuade you from getting this poncho, especially if you get it for the rare occasion you're caught off guard and need something, like your vehicle's emergency bag. Happy poncho-ing!

I'm a rain-adverse, but avid hiker. I very much dislike gortex shells since they're (1) not really waterproof, (2) steambaths when exercising. So when rain threatens, I use a poncho—but not the wimpy plastic kind (good only in emergencies). I prefer good ponchos because they're smaller, lighter, and above all: voluminous. So one can actually hike uphill in the thing without producing more moisture inside than the rain throws at you. It's easy to disperse the internal moisture just by waving the poncho around.This poncho is coated nylon (or polyester; not much difference). It comes with a small stuff sack, which is handy for when you want to take the thing off and stuff it back into your pack without getting the rest of your gear wet. My last poncho (stolen) was a Sierra Designs model that was quite similar to this one, but cost twice as much.As with my Sierra designs poncho, this one could be a foot or two longer to protect more of my legs (I'm only 5-9). The sleeves could be another 6" longer as well. But I'll forgive those quibbles because the price was so low, and, let's face it, nothing keeps you completely dry.4 stars since it's really too short. But very serviceable. And it comes in lots of colors, including the orange I like to be seen in (hey, we all might need something to wave at the rescue copter).

I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail for 7 months in 2022, from March through September. I began the AT with Frog Toggs, which I quickly learned were trash after just one day of use on the trail! I found several different types of rain gear in hiker boxes and made use of those until I could find what I wanted. This poncho was recommended to me and I gave it a try. Best decision I could've made! Let's face it, no rain gear in the world will keep you completely dry 100% of the time. There are pros and cons to all gear. Your shoes and socks will always be soaked in rain, and it's just something hikers live with. It doesn't even bother me. That being said, this poncho was large enough to fit over me, my pack, and it hung down just past my knees in the front. This is perfect for hiking up and down mountains, through thick brush, fording rivers, it's great in the heat and the cold. The hood has a small visor that keeps rain from dripping into your eyes as well. It never once ripped or developed any holes at all. It has a pocket in the chest area to keep your phone or whatever you need. It is quick and easy to deploy in a sudden shower, and dries extremely fast. It also works as a temporary personal shelter in really hard rain. you can sit on a ,log or rock, place your pack between your legs, bow your head down, and pull the poncho down around you to your feet (I did this many times!). And for the price, you can't beat it! I will be hiking the Colorado Trail beginning in June of 2023 and this poncho is going with me! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!!!

I’ve been wearing this for 2 years now! Baseball and football games!
