What is the difference between a raincoat and a poncho?
1. Different appearance
Raincoats generally come with sleeves, and raincoats are products that extend from raincoats. In terms of appearance, raincoats are more commonly seen as open, sleeveless cloak types.
2. Different usage ranges
Raincoats can be worn on foot, as well as for riding electric bikes, bicycles, etc., and are only suitable for one person to wear. And the poncho is basically used for riding motorcycles and electric bikes, with main styles including cape, H-shaped, split body, and jumpsuit, as well as single person and double person styles.
Therefore, if you are walking or cycling, it is recommended to use a raincoat, which is more convenient. If you want to ride a motorcycle or electric bike, using a raincoat is a better choice, which is conducive to "fully armed". And we at Yujiale have both daily raincoats and ponchos, available in sizes S to 5XL. No matter what type of transportation you choose on rainy days, it can help you block out the wind and rain~
Simply put, a raincoat also belongs to a raincoat, and a raincoat is just a type of raincoat with different styles.
Rain ponchos are generally used by cycling, such as electric vehicle rain ponchos, bicycle rain ponchos, and motorcycle rain ponchos. They can also be divided into open rain ponchos, sleeved rain ponchos, etc. according to the style. The general production method of rain ponchos is relatively simple, so the cost is relatively low, but they are used by a wider audience.
The current styles of raincoats are also diverse, but they are mainly focused on protecting the head from rain. There are raincoats with double brims, helmet style raincoats, and so on, so raincoats are also getting better and better.
Raincoat and poncho are essential items on rainy days. As the saying goes, there are unexpected events, so we should also be prepared. We don't have to buy a poncho only when it rains, but we can buy one and reserve it in advance.
Is it better to have a split raincoat or a one-piece raincoat during cycling? The one-piece raincoat is very waterproof, but its drawbacks are heat and stuffiness.
A split raincoat is not hot and easy to wear and remove, but it is not as waterproof as a single piece.
