Mystic Explore S/M 2025

Over the year, I’ve tested my fair share of ponchos and jackets, but the Mystic Explore Poncho has quickly become one piece of kit I just can’t part with. Not only is it incredibly functional, but the flash blue one I got also means it’s always easy to spot in the van and on the beach, no more rummaging around in the van! Plus, friends can easily find me, because, let’s face it, you can’t miss this thing! If blue isn’t your colour, Mystic has nailed the colourways with eight more choices: Sand, Teal, Moss, Pink, Black, Slate Brown, Brave Green, Purple, and, of course, Flash Blue.

Performance-wise, the Explore Poncho really feels like Mystic thought of everything. It’s fully waterproof and windproof, with 5K/5K protection, so even when the weather turns on you, you stay dry and warm. Inside, it’s lined from hood to hem with a cosy recycled polyester teddy fleece that makes getting changed after a cold session easy and almost enjoyable! The fit is oversized, making it easy to pull on over wetsuits and layers. The adjustable sleeve cuffs allow you to cinch them down when the wind picks up, and the two-way front zip provides flexibility whether you’re venting heat or locking in warmth. I love the fleece-lined hand pockets with zip closures (a big plus on windy beaches), and the internal zipper pocket is perfect for stashing keys or a phone.

Another win is that it’s built with sustainability in mind. The outer shell is 100% recycled nylon, with the teddy and sherpa linings also made from recycled polyester.

From walking to and from kite/ wingsurfing spots, dog walks, camping weekends, or just hanging out between sessions, the Mystic Explore Poncho has become my go-to. It’s not just a poncho; it’s a weather-proof, cosy all-rounder that’s always ready for the elements - check it out, trust me!
