Plus they’re ideal for backpackers as our designs are cut to cover even larger packs. Explore our full range of rainwear and be ready for any weather changes.

Affordable and compact solutions
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly and compact way to protect yourself from sudden downpours while also keeping your backpack dry, then a rain poncho is what you need. These ponchos are incredibly easy to carry and so lightweight that you’ll barely notice them. Many of our models like the Brandit Ripstop Rain Poncho come with a compression sack, allowing you to pack the poncho away easily when not in use.
Many people often forget how multifunctional rain capes can be. When cycling you can protect not only your head but also arms and upper body, while also covering a large part of your legs by draping the poncho over your handlebars. Ponchos have also become a festival essential thanks to their light weight and minimal storage requirements. They can even double as a sitting mat or picnic blanket. Outdoor enthusiasts love the versatility of rain ponchos using them as bivouac shelters and since they’re open on the sides, you won’t feel overheated as warm air can escape.
The Advantages of rain capes
A rain cape is a lightweight and practical solution that’s easy to take with you anywhere. Our rain ponchos aren’t just waterproof but they’re also extremely versatile. You can use them as regular rain capes, cycling ponchos or even as a tarp, bivouac or emergency sleeping bag cover. Additionally they’re designed to cover backpacks making them an ideal choice for those who often carry gear. Be sure to check out our rain sets if you prefer full coverage. We have many cool camouflage patterns and colours you won’t find everywhere.
Ripstop poncho – Extra durability
When you’re out in nature it’s important to have reliable rain gear that can withstand wear and tear in tough conditions. Our ponchos are made from ripstop nylon, a material that’s both lightweight and extremely durable. Ripstop technology prevents small tears from turning into larger ones ensuring that your poncho lasts even in rugged environments. Consider checking out our rain jackets for extra protection. We offer a wide range of modern colours and camouflage patterns that will keep you looking stylish while providing excellent coverage far surpassing the traditional rain gear.
Disposable and emergency ponchos – Handy for unexpected weather
For those moments when you need quick rain protection a disposable poncho is the ideal solution. Our lightweight ponchos are perfect for festivals, sports events or day trips where you don’t want to carry bulky rain gear. Disposable and emergency ponchos take up minimal space in your bag and can easily be thrown on when the weather suddenly changes. With proper care they can even be used multiple times.
