Rain Ghost is a poncho-tarp built for people who value lightweight, multifunctional gear. At just 205 g / 7.23 oz in size M, it works as both rain protection and a minimalist tarp shelter.
15D nylon uses PU coating on the inside and silicone on the outside for reliable waterproof protection. taped seams help keep rain out in prolonged wet conditions.
Wide visor and front drawcord help protect face from rain, while rear hook-and-loop adjustment improves hood fit. Updated version also uses button fixation along edges and an additional front fastening system for better stability in windy weather.
Another strong feature is integrated sleeves with button fasteners, which help keep arms dry without separate waterproof sleeves.

Mukola –
I haven’t used it for its intended purpose yet, but I can say that the storage case is very small, and it’s hard to put the raincoat in it. This is not a “deal breaker”, I’m just leaving a review for the manufacturer. It looks good, the hood is comfortable, and the fastening system on buckle is also well. I plan to use it actively next season.
Dan –
Do u have any pictures for use as a cooking shelter, what are the loops configuration? Corners, ridgelines & middle?
Store manager ROCK FRONT –
In the coming months, we will update this model – so we will definitely take all the pictures and add it to the product card along with the availability.

The size M is 211g inside its sack wich can be easily compacted to 6x15cm (9x15stated), there are lighter ponchos but they’re shorter in length and wide so you end up wet on your forearms and legs also those can’t be set as a tarp, and anyway you could easily cut it down and sew the borders so to make it lighter. This one even has an ellastic and adjustable string to get it tight around the waist. Seams come already taped, I like its perceived quality and I’m very sure it’s up to what it’s got to do
