Thermarest - Honcho Poncho Down

When the temperature drops at camp and you want something warmer than a fleece but less restrictive than a jacket, the Therm-a-Rest Honcho Poncho Down is the layer you'll reach for first.

The down version steps up from the synthetic Honcho with 650-fill RDS-certified hydrophobic duck down, delivering genuine warmth in a packable, versatile package. The hydrophobic treatment keeps the down performing in damp conditions where untreated fill would lose its loft. The shell is 100% recycled 20D nylon ripstop with a PFAS-free DWR coating, so it sheds light moisture while keeping the environmental footprint in check.

What separates this from a basic camp blanket with arm holes is the thoughtful cut. A three-panel fitted hood, anorak-style zipper, and a refined snap layout reduce excess fabric and give it a more jacket-like feel on the body. Side snaps under the arms still let you convert it to a blanket when you'd rather sprawl out by the fire. The front pocket doubles as a stuff sack, so packing it down for your canoe pack or hiking bag is quick and intuitive.
