VANMOOF's bike poncho.

Nothing ruins a bike commute more than a rain shower.

To solve this problem, the Amsterdam-based bike design company Vanmoof designed a poncho that keeps riders dry, even in snow or a downpour. Called the Boncho, it's like a wearable tent that repels water. 

"Just have the Boncho inside your bag, and don't worry about the weather," Vanmoof's CEO and co-founder Ties Carlier tells Tech Insider.
