Poncho Rain « Camo Desert »

Grey clouds rolling in, festival gate opening, or a dash for the 08:12. Pull on the Camo Desert pattern and keep moving while the rain does its worst. This is light, tough protection you can throw over your outfit and your pack, then pack away again before the next stop.

Poncho Rain: Design & Materials

Built from waterproof, tear-resistant 210T polyester, the Poncho Rain « Camo Desert » keeps showers at bay without weighing you down. The fabric shrugs off scrapes on bus seats, stiles and low branches, making it a dependable layer for town and trail alike.

Spread out, it measures roughly 210 x 140 cm to cover you and a backpack from hood to hem. Rivets and metal rings are integrated around the edge so it can double as a small tarp, canopy, groundsheet or a simple lean-to when you need quick shelter. Link more than one together via the rings for a wider pitch on group trips.

It weighs about 300 g and folds into an included pouch to roughly 21 x 5 cm, so it disappears neatly into a commuter bag or daypack. The unisex, one-size cut is designed for easy layering and reliable coverage in unsettled UK weather.

Poncho Rain: Comfort & Fit

The shape is generous for movement on steps, platforms and steep paths, yet it never feels cumbersome. An adjustable hood cinches in cleanly to seal out wind and drizzle, and the opening is roomy enough to pull over a cycling helmet when you need to get across town fast.

Because the Poncho Rain is cut to drape over your backpack, your essentials stay dry too. Slip it over a fleece on breezy ridge walks, over your work jacket on the school run, or over a hoodie at the campsite. The fabric dries quickly after a downpour, so you can shake it off and carry on without fuss.

Poncho Rain: Everyday Use & Versatility

Commuting, dog walks, festival sets, sidelines at the weekend, coastal wanderings and spur-of-the-moment bivvies all suit this adaptable layer. Open the Poncho Rain out for a brew stop canopy, lay it flat as a clean groundsheet under your mat, or pitch two together for extra cover when the forecast turns.

The Camo Desert print blends into sandy paths and city stonework alike, giving low-key style with outdoor grit. After muddy miles, rinse it, hang to air dry and store only when fully dry to preserve the waterproof finish. Avoid harsh detergents and high heat and it will handle regular use season after season.

For anyone who wants one piece that works Monday to campsite, the Poncho Rain « Camo Desert » delivers lightweight packability, full-body coverage and smart shelter options whenever the skies open.
