I can comment on the pack system itself (I'm a big fan) if anyone's interested, but packs aren't the subject of this thread. The AARN backpack and front pouches are waterproof, and so you don't really need a pack cover unless you want to avoid wet shoulder straps / waist belt. I think the reason AARN offers a poncho is that no other ponchos that I've seen have covers for AARN's front pouches built into the front of the poncho. I haven't found any better system for keeping you and your gear dry than rain pants, gaiters on the boots/shoes and a good poncho. Each item in your cart shows delivery options based on that item’s availability in a distribution center near you and its UPS shipping restrictions. Never get caught unprepared in a downpour again Reusable, one-size-fits-most hooded rain ponchos are ideal for storing in your car. In my three Camino's I've had two experiences with rainy days running on for 3-4-5 days in a row. Clear Plastic Rain Ponchos, 39.375x50 in.

If you are walking with an AARM pack, I think it's worth the money. The AARN poncho is expensive but I think the reason is 1.) it's very well made with rugged material similar to what they use on their packs (which explains the weight) and quality zippers (front and under arms) and 2.) it is more complicated to fabricate due to the two compartments in front to accommodate the pouches. It can be used on packs without the front pouches, but you would probably do as well with a poncho that is designed for a backpack only. The poncho is designed for use with AARN's backpack / front pouches configuration.

I've carried the AARN pack and used their poncho on two camino's (Frances and Puy to SJPdP).
