I have been a poncho guy for short commutes and even long slog's in the rain I used a Brooks vynle ponchono.but no longer makes it.
I found "the People's poncho" chockablock full of useful features, including being waterproof. But does not pack down. 030 Yours sincerely, Bernard F. Duhon Bernard F. Duhon, Ltd.

I hadn't heard of the alternative brands suggested and I'll check them out. At this point, I feel like this thread can transition into a general discussion of alternative rain gear, regardless of my original post.

I'd try the mother-mail-order-ship in Reno or wherever it is these days. Delamination/deterioration of the lining is not a wear or care issue. Nothing beats a synthetic rain jacket for packability and the ability to dry very quickly. As for the feel against the skin, that can vary greatly depending on the materials used. I have a Montbell rain jacket made with Infinium windstopper that is highly vapor permeable and durable rain repelling. They changed the fabric on the model I have but still use it in the Versalite jacket. The outer fabric on it is more glossy, while mine was matte, but the inside is the same matte feel to it. https://www.montbell.com/us/en/products/detail/2328169?fo=0&color=NV I love that their site offers details in construction and actual garments measurements in the sizing chart popup(Scroll down for the finished garment mesurements). It's not designed for cycling but the sleeves are longer than average and I found them good enough for me of aver 6'2" frame. It's not by any means form fitting so there is some flapping and such at speed, but it's not something one hopes to be riding in all day, just to survive a shower. I have different jackets for road use though as I prefer the bias cuts of those. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
