Troubleshooting
Poncho feels restrictive
Ensure the hood drawstring is not overly tightened and that you are wearing appropriate layers underneath.
Water seeping through seams
Inspect seams for any damage. While the EVA material is waterproof, seams can sometimes be a point of weakness if not properly sealed during manufacturing.
Material feels sticky or degraded
This can occur with prolonged exposure to extreme heat or certain chemicals. Clean with mild soap and water and ensure it is stored properly away from direct sunlight and heat.
Difficulty folding for storage
Lay the poncho flat, smooth out any major wrinkles, and fold it in sections. It is designed to be foldable, but avoid sharp creases that could weaken the material over time.
