Disposable Raincoats vs. Reusable Ponchos: Which One to Choose from an Environmental Perspective?
A disposable raincoat costing 10 yuan at a scenic spot entrance versus a reusable poncho that lasts three to five years — which one should you choose from an environmental perspective? The answer is not “reusable is always better” — the key lies in the number of uses. As a professional outdoor functional apparel manufacturer, ON THE WAY uses one table to calculate the environmental costs of both and provides a clear “environmental break-even line.” We also offer Custom fluoride-free waterproof ponchos with waterproof ratings up to 20,000mm+, so that “durability” and “eco-friendliness” no longer conflict.

Many riding jackets have a ventilation zipper on the chest or underarm, claiming that “pull it open and you’ll cool down.” But riders who have actually worn them know: some zippers let wind in when opened, while others make no difference at all.
