Where to get an Altus poncho in Burgos

[paleoirish]

Hi all, I'll be starting from Burgos in about 4 weeks time and am wondering if I can buy an Altus raincoat poncho in Burgos?

Thanks for your input

From an earlier thread:

https://www.caminodesantiago.me/community/threads/altus-poncho-in-burgos.14729/

that store is still in operation https://deportesmanzanedo.com/

And still seems to have the Altus

Poncho impermeable Altus.

But I am confused about the differences between the "new" and "old" Altus ponchos. I know that Barrabés, a high end hiking store in Spain, has stopped carrying them because of quality concerns, but there are a lot of threads dealing with that topic.

Thank you @peregrina2000, I did use the search function however I missed this one, sorry for replicating the plea.

Yes, I had a look at the Barrabés website and couldn't see what I was looking for. Guess I won't have any control over whether I get a new or old style poncho, I'll get whatever is in store

If you get one on Amazon they are the lightweight ones and work well though a cuffless Ferrino Hiker would breathe better.

Thank you @nidarosa, for some strange reason I couldn't see this when I had looked at the app on my phone but was able to order it using the laptop. I'm delighted as now i can count the weight of it in my packing and also get used to using it - somehow I imagine it's a bit of a pantomime trying to get it over the backpack at first

In May 2016 I purchased a red Altus at Base, Calle Madrid 19.

From the arch, Calle Madrid is directly across the river. and #19 is about 600 metres from the arch.
