Fox Khaki Poncho – One Size

Fox Khaki Poncho – Heavy-Duty Waterproof Protection

When the heavens open and the wind picks up, you need protection that goes beyond a standard jacket. The Fox Khaki Poncho is the ultimate “insurance policy” for the bankside. Designed with a massive 10,000mm Hydrostatic Head (HH) rating, this isn’t just a plastic sheet; it’s a technical, two-layer waterproof shield designed to keep you and your base layers bone-dry during the heaviest deluges.

At Gerry’s Fishing, we recommend this poncho for every angler’s kit bag. Because it features an oversized design, it can be thrown over your existing clothing, hoodies, or even a small rucksack in seconds. With fully welded seams and integrated storm baffles, it’s built to handle serious weather while you wait for that next run.

Key Features & Performance

• Serious Waterproofing: A 10,000mm HH rating combined with fully welded seams ensures that water stays out, even in prolonged heavy rain.

• Storm-Proof Design: The 1/4 length zip is protected by both internal and external storm baffles, preventing “zip-creep” leaks.

• Adjustable Fit: Double bungee adjusters allow you to cinch the hood and neck area tightly, ensuring wind-driven rain doesn’t find its way inside.

• Secure Storage: Features a zippered chest pocket protected by a hook-and-loop flap—perfect for keeping your phone or receiver dry and accessible.

• Ease of Movement: Elasticated cuffs keep the sleeves in place while casting or netting a fish, preventing that annoying “sleeve-slip” common with cheaper ponchos.

Technical Specifications

Where to Use This Poncho

• Emergency Rain Cover: Keep it in the bottom of your carryall for those sudden summer thunderstorms when you haven’t brought a full waterproof suit.

• Static Bait Fishing: Perfect for sitting on a chair or bedchair; the oversized cut drapes over your legs, providing much better coverage than a standard jacket.

• Mobile Roving: If you’re walking the banks with a small backpack, the poncho can often be pulled over both you and your bag to keep your gear dry while you move between swims.

Pro Tip from the Gerry’s Team

Because this poncho is 100% Polyurethane on the outside, it’s incredibly easy to clean. If you get it covered in mud or fish slime, don’t throw it in the wash—simply hang it up and hose it down. To store it, make sure it is completely dry before folding it back into your bag to prevent any “musty” smells or damage to the welded seams.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit over a heavy winter jacket?

Absolutely. The Fox Poncho is intentionally oversized to serve as an outer “shell.” It will comfortably fit over a thick hoody or a medium-weight winter jacket without restricting your movement.

Is it breathable?

While it features a 2-layer construction with a polyester lining to improve comfort, a poncho is primarily designed for maximum water resistance. However, because the bottom is open, it naturally allows for much more airflow than a standard waterproof jacket.

Does it come with a storage bag?

It is designed to fold down into a compact size that fits into most side pockets of a carryall or rucksack, making it the perfect “just in case” item for every trip.
