Went out for 3 hours of steady rain. RS is embroidered on front chest and water leaks through the embroidery onto my shirt. Also I am 6 ft 2 inches and poncho only came to mid arm so bottom of arm was soaking wet. Poncho doesn't come low enough to cover legs below knees. If you are smaller this is not a problem. I am use to the military quality ponchos which cover the entire arms and come below the knees. With the problem area of the embroidery leaking, the poncho kept me dry where it covered me.

This rain poncho is truly an exceptionally fine product. It folds into its own pouch which, when open, becomes a pocket inside the poncho. It is large enough to cover a large person and a big back pack or wheelchair. It dries quickly and folds back into its pouch that easily fits into a large handbag or day pack. I won't leave home without it.

This product kept me dry through heavy downpour and it's light weight to boot. Couldn't ask for an easier poncho to carry.
