When moving in nature, we should be prepared for unexpected situations. One of these is the deterioration of the weather. If it rains on the way, we can use a poncho or its combination with a raincoat. Compared to a classic raincoat, it has one indisputable advantage – in addition to ourselves, it also protects our backpack.
The Snugpak Enhanced Patrol Poncho protects us from water and wind while remaining light and compact. This is an equipment for every fan of outdoor activities, which does not burden the backpack too much.
Reliable and complete protection is provided by smart elements that eliminate the penetration of water and wind under the poncho. These features include a neck zipper, adjustable drawstring hood with quick release, elasticated cuffs and thumbholes at the sleeve ends. In addition, the poncho also offers a waterproof chest pocket, for example for a map, which can thus keep it completely dry.
The size of the poncho is universal, and thanks to its design, this piece of clothing can also serve as an emergency bivouac if we unexpectedly have to spend a night under the stars. As for maintenance, it is required only minimally – only from time to time you need to renew the water-repellent surface treatment of the poncho with impregnation (when you start to notice that the water on the surface stops forming drops, but starts to soak in).
