FAQs
What size is the Trespass Waterproof Poncho Qikpac?
This is a unisex adult poncho designed to fit most users. It is intended to be worn over clothing and potentially a backpack.
How do I clean the poncho?
You can hand wash or machine wash the poncho on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. Air dry only.
Can I wear a backpack under the poncho?
Yes, the design of the poncho is generally spacious enough to accommodate a backpack underneath, offering protection for both you and your gear.
Is the poncho suitable for very windy conditions?
While the adjustable hood offers some security, ponchos are generally less secure than jackets in high winds. It's best suited for rain protection where strong winds are not the primary concern.
How compact is the packaway feature?
The poncho folds into its own integrated pouch, making it very compact and easy to store in a backpack, pocket, or glove compartment for unexpected weather.
What material is the poncho made from?
The product description indicates it is made from waterproof material designed to keep you dry.
Are the zips waterproof?
The zips are described as 'low profile' and 'contrast', suggesting they are functional but may not be fully waterproof themselves. The main protection comes from the poncho's fabric.
Troubleshooting
Poncho is not fully waterproof.
Check for any damage to the fabric or seams. Ensure the hood and any zips are properly closed. Re-waterproof if necessary following manufacturer guidelines.
Hood adjustment is difficult.
Ensure the drawstrings are not tangled. Gently pull on the drawstrings to tighten. If the toggles are stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly.
Poncho is difficult to pack into its pouch.
Ensure the poncho is completely dry and folded as flat as possible before attempting to pack it. Start packing from the bottom of the pouch and work upwards.
Reflective trim is peeling off.
Avoid harsh scrubbing during cleaning. If the trim is damaged, it may affect visibility. Contact customer support if the damage is significant and occurred shortly after purchase.
