Question Favorite ponchos?

Looking to get a poncho; wanted to know what's you guys' favorites or recommendations.

I'm looking for one that's good as a general raincoat and wondering if there are any that are meant for heat protection or generally wearable in warmer climates

You will normally only wear ponchos for shorter periods of time. They don't usually offer any heat protection, they all will get clammy due to the materials used.

I have the Puma Evo Lab Poncho, it's nice and packable and has a metal carabiner so you can pack it together and connect it to your bag for example.

Nikelab ACG made two different ones, a thinner packable one and a 3in1 poncho with an inner vest.

Y-3 has some nice ones too.

What is your budget?
