The Sea to Summit Nylon Tarp Poncho is a lightweight powerhouse that offers versatility and protection for every outdoor moment. Made of durable 70 D nylon with fully taped seams, it will keep you dry during heavy downpours - including your backpack. The three-panel hood with wide brim effectively channels water away, while the spacious layout offers room for a fully packed rucksack.
But this poncho can do more: in a few moments, you transform it into a tarp-shelter for two, complete with attachment points for guys - ideal for quick shelters or emergency shelter. It comes in a compact oval stuffsack, so is so packed minimal in volume (approx. 8 × 19 cm, 400 g).
Usage tips:
- Wear it as a poncho during wet weather, but don't forget a belt or accessory strap - otherwise, when windy, you will blow in all directions.
- In shelter mode, you can use trekking poles, cords or tent pegs to create a dry shelter for two.
- Use the wide hood for extra face protection during rain.
- After use, dry and store unfolded - this keeps it light and compact.
