Gamboa Men's Poncho - Alpaca Wool with Hood

It’s the best, so light but keeps warm. The office i work at get so freaking cold- 65 f on a good day. but this makes working at my desk comfortable. i’ve had it for almost a year and a half and mine is starting to to pill but that’s a simple fix

We ordered this just about 2 years ago in November of 2021 to help keep me warm post-surgery on my shoulder. Can't put on a hoodie when your shoulder needs to remain in place or you risk popping out your new shoulder and crying in pain. And it does a nice job at that, to this day. It amazingly does a great job at keeping me warm and remains comfortable. I was worried it'd be itchy from the wool, but it is so comfortable I find myself wearing it more often than my favorite jacket due to the ease of putting it on and keeping it on. The wool is starting to fray in parts, mostly in the front, but it's not coming apart at the seems or anything. I often wear it when I'm doing the dishes to keep warm without getting something like a hoodie's sleeves damp. I have full range of motion plus keeping warm on my torso. I often find that I can wear a shirt, underwear, and this poncho, and keep warm (until certain temperatures) if I sit crisscross applesauce and have my arms tucked in. Inside of course, outside with a wind that wouldn't work as well. And outside in general clothing, it blows nicely and clings to your torso against the wind. I find keeping my arms tucked together like a Russian muff in the winter helps me stay warm against cold and windy days. And best of all, it's a great way to add layers that is easy to put on, take off, and keep more range of motion than most other clothing. I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs a poncho or to stay warm post surgery above the belt.

Awesome poncho! Great styling, as well as fabric and construction. I heartily recommend it!

Short Review: I love this. It is soft and warm. The color is beautiful... One reviewer said the ends were unfinished, and they truly are unfinished! So make sure you tie these off when you get them, click on the helpful icon for that reviewer's information and rock on! Also, Mine came with one of those plastic label tags stapled in the middle somewhere and hidden by the fold (it is on the inside). When you are unfolding this beautiful poncho, DO IT SLOWLY and GENTLY. When you locate that plastic tag thing, snip it off so you don't pull on these threads and ruin your initial purchase. Then, carefully remove those plastic ends and toss them! Threads/yarns are very easily pulled out of these type of items, and you don't want to end up with a damaged item! I've actually deducted a star for the curious placement of this tag and the delicate nature of this material. The two of them don't go well together, and it baffles me that this is how the seller is shipping them out. This isn't exactly a "traditional" poncho as I've understood (I've always had the hardier ponchos - where you can use them like a beach towel, or blanket etc.) This is a much finer item and is quite delicate. It can be a little difficult to maintain (ponchos swing around quite freely unlike other articles of clothing) and can get caught on things like doors or handles or whatnot. Just be aware of this when you're walking about. You can find the hardier ponchos (which I totally love as well) here on Amazon for about 1/3 the price. They are AWESOME! Hope this helps!

Beautiful, soft, big, warm. I really like it. It is not thin, it does not smell bad. The blue one is a deep beautiful color. The hood is just the right size. The whole thing doubles as a large throw or blanket. But long and wide enough to cover my feet all the way to my chin unlike most throws that are too short. When worn as a poncho it has plenty of width to wrap up in and it goes to my knees. Good for a football game on a chilly evening in the bleachers. The one negative which many reviews state, is that the bottom is not finished and although nice and tight now, I see it could start to come unraveled if it catches on something and sure it will sooner or later. I may just knot it up myself along the bottom fringe, its just nice enough to put in the effort. But they should do this themselves. ill buy another for my sister. For those cold nights in Tennessee!!

I bought it for a play at church. I wear it now in the evenings while watching TV. It’s very soft, comfortable and warm.

I loved this Poncho, I’m not that tall so it’s very cozy for me. It goes down to my kneecaps being 5’4”

The receiver of the Poncho loves it.

Product is as described and warm, as well as good quality and design. NB Front and back panels are not joined.

Comfortable and warm

We got this quickly and easily in time for Christmas gifting from the seller. It's soft and beautifully large enough for multiple uses camping. The alpaca fabric is so soft and warm. My daughter loves it!

lighter weight than anticipated

I absolutely love these I have purchase 2 of the same colour. Nice and toasty.
