L.L.Bean

Sukezane“A fully waterproof poncho is a versatile item for active movement in the rain or when you can’t use an umbrella.”

L.L.Bean’s poncho has a very lovely silhouette when worn. As expected from a brand that has produced numerous masterpieces like the Bean Boots and Boat and Tote Bags, it’s not just lovely, but also exceptionally practical. Its thorough water-repellency is a testament to its heritage.

The khaki and navy Traverse Poncho is an updated version of the iconic Classic Anorak, enhanced with waterproofing for a stylish finish. The adjustable drawcords are inspired by the laces of the Bean Boots, and with finger loops, they ensure a perfect fit. The taped seams prevent water penetration, and the fact that it’s machine washable is another welcome feature.

If you wear a poncho like this over your suit on a rainy day, it might just brighten your mood on the way to work. Let's go all out, feeling like we're singing in the rain!”
