“My kids & I love throwing these on after a day in the sun, a dip in the hot springs, or pool time. We get so many compliments, everyone wants to know where they’re from!”
Karissa Akin, Co-Founder of Iksplor
Why La Ventana?
La Ventana isn’t just where these ponchos are handmade. It’s a place that holds deep meaning for us. Known for its steady winds and vibrant kiteboarding community, La Ventana has been a second home, a playground, and a place of connection for our family.
We spent countless hours on the water here with our dad, sharing in the thrill of adventure and the beauty of the Baja coastline. Though he is no longer with us, this place keeps his spirit alive. It’s where we remember him, where we feel closest to him, and where his love for adventure lives on.
This collaboration brings together Kay Kay, the founder of SURreal, the incredibly talented sisters who handcraft these ponchos in La Ventana, and us, sisters Kailey & Karissa of Iksplor, to create something truly special. Each poncho is a celebration of adventure, craftsmanship, and the connections that shape us.
By choosing this poncho, you’re not just buys a handcrafted, one-of-a-kind piece. You’re supporting a community, a story, and a place that means the world to us.
Merino wool fibers are finer and softer than traditional wool, often described as comfortable and non-itchy. It can also be good for skin conditions such as eczema.
Adult sizes include hand holes so you can swap out of a wetsuit hands-free. Kid sizes work as a warm cover-up after water.
Ultra-absorbent and soft — closer to a favourite beach towel than a stiff cover-up. The merino-lined hood adds warmth right where you need it most.
Yes. This is a limited collab between Iksplor and SURreal Baja. We have restocked in two new colorway, Wild Fuchsia and High Tide, but quantities are limited and we won't be making more once they're gone.
Machine wash cold on a delicate cycle, inside out. Hang to dry. Do not tumble dry or iron. Treat it well and it will last for years of post-water adventures.
