Anyone seen one of those pack cover/poncho combos that's made for a small person? I really want to get one of these but am wary about trying to sew it myself, on account of the waterproof material. I tried these on at Trail Days but was absolutely swimming in the smallest one they had. I am about 5'2.

You might PM him and ask if he'd make you a custom size.

Your best option is to buy a jacket that fits and a packcover that fits and sew them together. If you can sew even a little bit, this is relatively easy. Very small customs are too difficult and time consuming for me to do, sorry. See Wrongway's thread about his Packa.
