I keep it in my work tote bag.  I wore it to run into work and leave work when it was raining.  Summer rains... Hard and fast.  Worked great for me!  I liked the poncho style (first one) as it was easy to slip on and off while sitting in my car before I got out.  I did not wear it for an extended time so the water Repellant material worked fine for me!

 forgot to mention, I like that it's packable.  has it's own little same material bag.
