In my on-going & hopefully not futile quest for a poncho that I can afford, rely on, and be sure of receiving before I start walking, I came across Campmor ponchos online. I've searched the forum and found a couple of comments from several years ago from someone who was planning on getting one...

And I'm so glad you did! I bought New Balance a few weeks ago and have done some short training walks (4.5 and 6.5 miles with pack at 13.5) - I love them. My feet love them. I haven't tested them in wet (or muddy!) conditions yet, but will do -- if we ever get some rain. ;)
