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.

The 9th edition the Lightfoot Guide will let you complete the journey your way.
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!
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-

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.

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!
