The beauty of an Autumn morning in the country with a hot cup of coffee. Watching the fog rising from the river, singing around a campfire on the beach, sharing stories and dreams on the tailgate of a pickup truck – this is the essence of the Bonfire Poncho design. A casual, comfy layer to throw on when the morning breeze is brisk and the evenings start to feel chilly and cold.
