Cloudburst Rain Cape — The Poncho That Keeps the Rain Off the Important Bits

Cut for a Long Back, Not a Barrel Chest

Standard raincoats are shaped like a Labrador: short back, deep barrel. A Whippet in one ends up with a bare rear and a sail where the chest should be. This pattern is drafted long and narrow, with a deep chest panel that closes under the sternum.

• Back length runs long — the hem covers the loin, not the middle of the back
• Chest panel wraps under the ribcage and snaps closed
• No sleeves, so nothing restricts the shoulder at full extension
• Sits over a knit on cold wet days without pulling
• Hangs clear of the tail — no soggy hem dragging
