See Sea to Summit Tarp Poncho The Best Budget Rain Poncho: Frogg Toggs Poncho ![]() Sea to Summit also offers this model in a much lighter Ultra-Sil Nano version, but we prefer this one for general travel, as it’s way more durable. It also accommodates a large backpack and is double stitched and tape sealed, another nod to high-quality design. This means it’ll be more durable, which is good for most travelers and day hikers, but not as good for ultralight backpackers. It weighs about double what others do on this list, mostly due to the 70D nylon material, which is much thicker. The Sea to Summit Tarp Poncho does what others do on this list: it covers your body from the rain in a poncho manner and also converts into a basic tarp shelter if you really need it to.
