Quality poncho? Spotted on someone at Disney springs

[klk77]

walking out if Disney springs this week, I spotted a kid wearing a really nice looking poncho. Wasn't clear, had a lovely print on it, and looked like a nice quality material. Wish I'd asked their parent where they had bought it, but was too embarrassed to chase after them...

Anyway, wondering if anyone knows where you could find a better quality poncho (e.g. Not the standard Disney park ones, or "garbage bag" material) for kids and/or adults.

Thanks!

I have a frogg toggs brand breathable poncho that is nicer than a standard poncho but still not fancy or anything.

I bought one on Amazon that's really similar to Costuming-issued CM rain gear.

We used our ikea ponchos for the first time this week (I had bought after I saw a child with one on at WDW and asked) and they worked GREAT, are lightweight (not vinyl), no gaps for side rain to come in, hoods stay tight ... and dried very fast.

I had seen a joules poncho while at Disney. Nice when they are on sale!

Any store like Dick's, Cabela's, Gander Mountain, etc. will have high quality ponchos in the camping section. We got Coleman brand ones from Cabela's one year, and actually found the same ones at Big Lots for $5. They worked well, but we hated the hassle of carrying them both before and after it rained. We find the Disney ones to be pretty good quality so now we just buy those as we need them when it rains.

The one's over at Disney aren't that bad. I go to the parks all the time. and if we forget ours I buy just pick up a few. I think they're under $10

I'm glad to see these worked well! These are what I bought for our upcoming trip.
