I use a rain cape when it rains and is warm, i.e., in summer. When it is a downpour, I may put on rain pants, and these by Decathlon. The rest of the year, I use a Tucano Urbano Magic Parka that takes of temperature, rain, and snow. I get rain capes, for myself and my family, in the German market where everybody and their brother uses rain capes, so their quality is optimized and their price is relatively low, such as here. I am baffled by the Cleverhood Urbanaut Poncho. I bought my Magic Parka on sale for a third of the Cleverhood price, and with its removable lining, it is an attire you can wear in the middle of winter. Its elegance reflects its Italian design, and you can walk in it straight into a museum or concert. It has embedded gloves!
Great to hear a positive review of this jacket... I've been wanting it for a long time and debating whether to bite the bullet and pay the extortionate shipping to NZ.
I'd love to know how the sizing comes up. Is it loose fitting across the shoulders? Or do you recommend sizing up? I've tried to find actual garment measurements but there's only the size chart with body measurements available. Cheers!
