Using your Basil Hoga rain poncho is a breeze. Just put it on like a regular poncho before you start your bike ride. Adjust the three - piece hood to get a good view. If you want sleeves while walking, use the pushbuttons to create them. Make sure to fasten the hip straps and use the hand loops to keep the poncho in place while cycling. When it comes to care, clean it with a mild detergent and lukewarm water. Don't use harsh chemicals or bleach. After washing, let it air dry. Avoid storing it in a damp place as this can damage the fabric. With proper use and care, your poncho will serve you well for a long time.
