Purchasing Altus rain poncho in Santiago de Compostela

Time of past OR future Camino
First attempt Camino Frances (Sep to Nov 2017)
Any idea where I can purchase an Altus rain poncho/jacket when I arrive Santiago de Compostela?
I live in Ottawa of Canada. Can I purchase it somewhere in Canada? No stores stock this in Ottawa. I leave in mid- September to Santiago de Compostela, walking the Camino Inglis and camino Finisterre.
Thank you.

I haven't seen them in the hiking stores in Santiago.
You can order from this Spanish store and they will ship internationally. I think that their price is very good, and the shipping is reasonable.
 
There’s a store called La Tienda in Verdun, Québec. This is in Montreal, ie on the Island, on rue Wellington. I got my Altus poncho from them. They have a website, check them out online or head east on the Queensway!
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

€46,-

I bought mine in Trekken and it was delivered to my daughter in Brooklyn in about 10 days. I think it was about 10 more for the shipping.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

I live in US and ordered mine from Trekkinn based on Trecile’s recommendation (thanks!) and received within about 10 days. I was never able to find one in Spain on the Norte and Primitivo, so now I have one for my next Camino!
