Rain poncho for the vertically challenged

[HorseGuy]

Hello

I'm looking to get a good quality robust rain poncho for someone who is only 5’ 2” tall.
There are plenty of good ponchos available on the market but they all seem to be ‘one size fits all’ and as such will be too big to fit small people.

Any suggestions would much welcomed. Thanks.

Paramo used to make a poncho in at least two sizes?

Edit - they still do and have a good size guide on the website here. https://paramo-clothing.com/en-gb/explore-range/product/poncho/

That Paramo looks perfect. Thank you.

Have you considered a heavy duty bin bag?

If its just to be used as a poncho, can you not get it shortened professionally? When i was a Cadet, i remember using a 58 patern poncho with a bungee cord as a belt to keep me from treading on it so i understand your predicament, hopefully you will find a solution

Any cheap Chinese made poncho; all I've ever bought are for shorter than "standard" fit. Also not as wide

I cut the bottom point bit off a poncho I got from HH for my nephew and just resewed the hem. It wasn’t super great shape and couldn’t be used as a tarp anymore but it worked.

It was this one
