For Sale/Wanted NEEDED: Altus Poncho -

[Anniesantiago]

Mine is packed up in one of about 50 boxes.
Does anyone have one for sale?
I'd prefer an older one, but will consider any poncho in good condition.

Annie...I have two. One small and one large. We haven’t used them for years..nor have I looked at them for many years. First used in 2009....does that count as old.

I have a size medium, purchased this year off Amazon. Very disappointed in it, as no pockets and ponding of sweat at the elbows. (Relates to height at which walking poles are held.) I'm thinking of ditching it for a Decathlon poncho when I get to Ourense in a few days; although the Decathlon poncho is a bit short in the arm department. The problem is that the Altus poncho is made of ripstop nylon and it doesn't breathe. If I use it as a cape, it's okay. I pull the sleeves inside out to stop them flapping in the wind.
Frankly, the overall quality is poor - even the velcro is second rate. Its redeeming feature is that it keeps my pack dry.

PM me if you want to buy it.

And yes, I'd love the 2009 one . Is it the large maybe??????

Annie....both are from 2009. I will have to dig them out and insure that they are still in good shape. I recall that one of the storage bags was missing and that one of them had a tape repaired tear (from fence) somewhere on bottom.

UPDATE: I did find them. The size "Talla L/XL" is the one that has a tape repaired tear on the bottom back. It is not apparent from the outside as the tape is inside. Not a big area and does not affect the coverage as I recall.

Added: Annie...I sent you a PM

Hi there,
I'm looking for some ALTUS ponchos again this year for my group.
Anybody have one or two for sale?

Annie...I think Ellie still has her 2009 Altus. it is a "small/medium" size.
You got mine last year.

I would also like to find an ALTUS - an XL-XXL would probably be about right. Thanks for your consideration!

Annie talked me out of my large size old style Altus last year. This thread was originally started by Annie in October of 2019 and she has just reopened it today 10/28/202l.
