Karbon Race Over Jacket Poncho

Racers and coaches who spend long stretches standing around in sleet and wet snow will get the most out of the Karbon Race Over Jacket Poncho. It's a fully waterproof pull-over layer from Karbon's race collection, cut wide with short sleeves and a fixed hood, so you can throw it over whatever you're wearing and stay dry until it's your turn.

Why we like it:

It packs into itself, so it lives in a boot bag or coat pocket all season and only comes out when the weather turns.

Features and Functions:

The shell is Karbon's Hydroshield polyester, a fully waterproof fabric built for rain and heavy wet snow rather than breathability during hard efforts. A fixed hood with drawcord adjusters cinches down when the wind picks up, and a stash pocket holds a phone, bib pins or a snack. Reflective accents add visibility in flat light and around parking lots at dawn. When it's not in use, the whole poncho folds into its own pocket for storage.

Fit and Sizing:

Loose, boxy and cut to go over your layers, with short, wide sleeves that slide on without catching.

Bottom Line:

Best as a grab-and-go rain layer for race days, training blocks and coaching on the hill, where staying dry between runs matters more than anything else.
