Altus Poncho Source

[Jeff Johnston]

Does anyone here know where I can order subject Poncho on-line in US??
Would rather be equipped at the start instead of searching in Spain.

Start with EBAY first.I wanted an Altus too but after looking, I found a cheaper but still effective poncho.I'll be walking in July so I probably won't need it.BUT it is there.

You can reserve one at this store in St Jean Pied de Port.

Poncho is an essential rain gear. I discarded my Atlus one I bought on the Camino, it was too hot.
For my 2nd Camino I researched various poncho materials and chose the sea to submit Ultra-sil Nano tarp poncho. It is lightweight and does not have sleeves and thus offers better breathability through increased ventilation.
This link will help you find the store still has them in stock. I see gear-x has some now.

Greetings. My first post. I found the Altus poncho in stock in most sizes in the color red available for shipment to the USA at Amazon.comUK. The price is almost £77 plus shipping. They seem to have plenty. Alas, none in blue in any size.

That's pretty expensive. I have reserved one at the store in SJPDP for €54.90
