All packages are shipped priority with tracking and insurance. All of the prices listed include shipping within the continental U.S.
Turnaround time varies and can take up to several weeks for your poncho to ship. I try to get them out within about a week, but between having a a special needs child, a homeschooled 4th grader, and several chronic health conditions myself, sometimes it takes a little longer. I always update the Facebook page if there is a delay and I hope everyone understands when this happens!

Pricing
***All prices include shipping within the continental U.S.***
Basic ponchos are 2 layers of fleece and come with a hood and elastic ties to keep the poncho from blowing around or dragging on the ground (if you size up).
Prices start at:
Prices start at:
XS: $$45
S: $50
M: $55
L: $65
Extras include:
Armholes $15
Snap-in extra layer: $15
Licensed fabric: $5
Larger size: Price available upon request
Premium fabric: Price available upon request
So for example, a Medium poncho, with Hello Kitty fleece and armholes would be $55+$5+$15=$75
Rain ponchos are one layer of fleece and one layer of waterproof PUL fabric and come with a rain hood. Prices start at:
XS: $55
S: $60
M: $70
L: $80
XS: $55
S: $60
M: $70
L: $80
So for example, a L rain poncho with armholes would be $80+$15=$95
Hybrid ponchos are a regular winter poncho with a snap on waterproof layer to use as needed or separately. It will come with 2 hoods; one winter hood and one rain hood. If you would like armholes on a hybrid poncho, please specify if you want both layers to have a set, or just one (some people prefer not to get a set on the waterproof layer). With hybrid ponchos you can pick a printed fabric for the rain portion and a different printed fabric for the winter portion if you'd like. Keep in mind that dark fleece will show through lighter colored PUL (waterproof) fabric. Prices start at:
XS: $85
S: $95
M: $110
L: $120
So for example, a M hybrid poncho with Batman fleece and armholes in the winter poncho only would be $105+$5+$15=$130
2 separate ponchos with the same features would cost a total of $175 so there are some big savings there!
***You do not have to figure all of this up yourself. I will calculate it and send you the invoice for the correct amount. This is just to give you an idea of what to expect.***

Ready to order?
Because these ponchos are custom, I do not feel a typical on-line shop is the best option. I like to discuss with each and every person how their poncho will look before making it. So here is how you order:
1) Decide on the size you need. This post will help you figure out which size is best.
2) Decide on a fabric. Here are the waterproof choices for rain ponchos. Please visit the Joann site for fleece selections. You should pick a few in case my local store doesn't have your first choice. I can also do all solids colors too, of course. I can order specific fabric if you'd like, just send me a link and I will find it locally or on-line (if I have to order it on-line, the extra cost will be passed to you).
3) Decide if you'd like anything extra, like armholes, or an extra layer. If you need something special and aren't sure if I can do it, just ask!
4) Simply message me on the Punchy Ponchos Facebook page. I will put in your order, send an invoice through PayPal, and get to work on your poncho! If you do not have a PayPal account already, you can sign up here.
5) Wait for your poncho to arrive! Shipping times explained here.
Happy shopping!

Need armholes?
If your child would prefer their arms not be inaccessible the whole time they are wearing their poncho, maybe they need armholes! They snap shut to keep the cold out when they are not in use! These will be $15 extra per set (if you get a hybrid poncho and want armholes on both layers, it will be $30).
I place these holes slightly more than midway up the poncho so the child's arms will come out at about waist level to hold a toy or drive a powerchair. If your child really likes to have their hands in their mouth, you'll want the armholes higher up on the poncho. Just let me know if this is the case and I will make a note of it on your order.

Rain ponchos!
Tired of trying to hold an umbrella over your child while pushing the wheelchair? With a waterproof poncho you won't have to worry about that! These are made with an outer layer of polyurethane laminate, which is the same type of fabric used in modern cloth diapers, and it comes in many great prints! The inner is 1 layer of fleece for a little warmth. You can pick a PUL print for the outer and a solid color fleece for the inner, or a solid color PUL for the outer and a fleece print for the inner! PUL is considerably more expensive than fleece though, so these ponchos cost more than my standard all-fleece ponchos.

Solid colors are here.
The main difference with the rain poncho vs the regular winter poncho (aside from the materials used) is how the hood is designed. In order to keep water from falling down your child's neck, the hood is longer and drapes outside of the poncho.

Sizing
This should help you choose the size you need. All of the sizes are very generous and are meant to cover the child head to toe. So if you don't want to spend a lot, size down, it'll likely be ok! Feet may stick out, but most of their body will still be covered. Measure your child to be sure, though. Their overall height can probably be 6" or so longer than the poncho and still fit fine. The hood adds some length.
These are the dimensions for each size at the widest points (width x length). These dimensions are of the poncho without the hood (just the "blanket" portion of the poncho), so while your child is in his chair, measure from the shoulders down.
XS: 30"x30"
S: 36"x36"
M: 44"x44"
L: 48"x52"
