Any thoughts on the Gatewood Cape/Shelter?

I saw it recommended to a buddy elsewhere earlier and it looks (at risk of another Lockdown pile on) interesting.

For cycling, poncho tarps are a nono sadly, they billow out in the air like nothing else. For walking they’re ok.
SMD products come highly recommended, I have a (non-poncho) floorless 1p tarp that was £60 second hand and has housed me very happily on solo trips all over Europe.
