It seems to me that the weather pattern is becoming more and more unpredictable these days. You may or may not know but if you were organising an event for charity or simply a promotional campaign for your company or product the number 1 factor effecting participation rate would be rain. If you were an event organiser this is an absolute night mare especially with the time and effort made but more importantly the amount of money spent to secure the correct insurance and locations. Promotional ponchos and raincoats may help ease the misfortune a little. They are better than umbrellas in the sense that your team members are still free to move around normally.

Ponchos and Rain Coats: Pros and Cons

Ponchos and rain coats are terrific products to help your event along when it is raining. It allows you and yor crew to make the most out of a rainy day by keeping your hands free to do other things. There are a few differences with Ponchos and Rain coats with each having different pros and cons:

Poncho Pros

• Portable (folded down much smaller than a rain coat.)
• Very cheap (much cheaper than umbrellas and rain coats)

Poncho Cons

• low in quality and prone to tearing
• almost impossible to fold back neatly
• inability to custom brand on smaller order runs (typically below 3000 units)

Raincoats on the other hand also have advantages and disadvantages:

Raincoat Pros

• A bit more breathable hence more comfortable to wear than Ponchos
• More tear resitant hence can be re-used
• Ability to custom brand raincoats on smaller runs

Raincoat Cons

• More expensive than Ponchos

Raincoats are definitely the better product to select from if you were wishing to stock up in anticipation for a rainy day. The cost though is far more expensive and you can typically purchase 5 ponchos for every 1 raincoat. If you were handing out rain protection for a larger crowd then we would typically recommend Ponchos to ensure your budget can stretch further.
