Tropical-Weight Waxed Canvas

Built for warm, wet places where you want coverage without feeling wrapped in a sleeping bag. There’s no full-body liner to keep weight and heat down, but you still get the performance of waxed cotton: water-repellent, breathable, and naturally resistant to stink. When the years add up, you can re-wax it and keep the fabric working instead of replacing the whole poncho.

Brass Snaps, Built to Age

Solid brass snap buttons are mounted with leather washers for long-term strength and cleaner wear over time. Three snaps per side let you create sleeves and close the sides when the weather turns ugly, reducing flap and driving rain. It’s the kind of hardware that doesn’t chip like plated stuff—just settles into a proper patina and keeps doing its job for years.

Heritage-Grade Natural Materials

We craft bags from heavyweight beeswaxed canvas, genuine brass, and premium full-grain leather, delivering authentic quality, sustainability, and enduring style that matures beautifully rather than deteriorating.

Seamless Shoulder Shield

Cut as one continuous piece of 8oz waxed canvas, the Pacific Poncho removes seams from the shoulder/body zone using our in-house folding system. That means fewer leak points, less chafe under straps, and double-layer protection right where rain and abrasion hit hardest. The built-in shoulder shaping also creates a natural runoff path, so water sheds fast instead of soaking in.

"This poncho is the culmination of years of customer feedback and personal experience building rain ponchos. I personally tested this design in monsoonal downpours and a typhoon to get it right. I think we might have designed something profoundly unique and useful here."

Jarrod Stillman (Chief Designer, Jack Stillman)

Storm Hood Fit System

The new Storm Hood is more fitted than the Ranger and adjusts front and rear for a proper seal in sideways rain. The rear bungee + cord-locker setup lets you cinch down and fine-tune tension by changing how the cord runs through the four tension loops. Best bit: the rear adjustment is exposed, so it’s easier to service or repair if you ever manage to break it.

AquaGuard Zip Front

AquaGuard® front zip gives you quick on/off without opening up a big wet gap down the chest. It’s a simple, hard-wearing solution for tropical downpours where you’re constantly moving between “on” and “off.” Paired with the poncho’s shoulder runoff shaping, the front closure is built to keep rain out while you’re hiking, riding, fishing, or just getting chores done outdoors.

I live on Shetland one minute sunny the next rain and back again. This Poncho is perfect for here, keeps me dry out with the dogs and not over warm on a summer day. Great ventilation. Great for layering over a Shetland Gansie if it’s cold. Wish I bought one years ago. Handy bag to pack it away and drop in your rucksack. Built to last and real brass poppers. Don’t hesitate, you won’t regret this purchase.

Hi Adrian, it's lovely to hear the Pacific poncho is perfect for your Shetland life! Thanks so much for your recommendation and review.

The poncho is awesome. I wanted something to protect from the rain during the summer when it’s hot. I don’t like umbrellas since everyone has them and you bump into everyone. A rain jacket has me sweating like a sauna. This was perfect and very well made. Feels rugged and well built, I’m sure it will last for a very long time.

Hi Zachary, we're so glad you're liking the Pacific poncho. It's great that it fits your needs for staying dry and comfortable. Thanks so much for your support!

Excellent service and excellent quality poncho thanks i have also ordered the Ranger poncho in Green and looking forwards to the end of the summer heatwave to get some rain exposure and overnighters done.I gave added my alpaca wool poncho to it for the colder nights it also retains heat when damp,so win, win. It now rollsza bit chunkier and wont go in the bag but pack great on my rucksack.

Looks fantastic. Not put to the test yet but I’ve bought it for coppicing season which gets very wet but conventional waterproofs just don’t stand up to the harsh environment.

We're glad you're happy with the Pacific poncho so far! hopefully it keeps you warm and dry when it eventually gets put to the test. Thanks for reviewing!

I totally love the Pacific Rugged Rain Poncho, so much so that I ordered the other two Poncho's & the hood to go with them. Sorry I can't remember the name's of the other two Poncho's. Yes I can guarantee they'll all be well & truly used. Out camping with my huskies. I can't wait to get the other two Poncho's from yourselves.

Sincerely
Robert Irving

Hey Robert, we're super happy to hear you like the Pacific poncho! It sounds perfect for camping with your huskies. We hope you enjoy the other ponchos as well, thanks for your support!

The Pacific Rugged Rain Poncho is, as with all Jack Stillman products, made to a very high standard. Can’t fault the quality. Perfect for its first outing to protect me during a very wet football match at the MCG. Always happy to purchase from Jack Stillman.

This is a strong, well-made poncho. I like the built in hood for heavy rain. I pirchased rhe model with no liner because I have plenty of fleeces that I normally use and there is plenty of room. Shipping is a challenge as it did take over 2 weeks to arrive from Australia, but Customs delayed and that is not the company’s fault. When I did find out the order was delayed, the dompany reaokved it same-day. This is definitely foimg to get some use camping starting in the Fall!
