The Taxus rain poncho is a thin and very lightweight poncho that folds up into its own chest pocket and can accompany you everywhere. The poncho has a waterproof and windproof SEETEX® membrane, so condensation does not accumulate inside, unlike in a traditional poncho. The hood is adjustable to fit snugly around your head in the cold and wet. There are press studs at the side, so you can button the poncho down around you. Along the edge are six metal eyes, which allow you to stretch the poncho out like a tarpaulin, to create a wind shelter for instance. Four strong elastic cords of different lengths are supplied for this purpose.
