EuroSCHIRM Light Trek Automatic Folding Umbrella, Compact, Ultra-light weight, 38”

As a mass transit commuter i find the auto open and close feature very useful. Also, the fiberglass arms seem to hold up much better than previously purchased metal arms which bent or snapped under too much wind.

Thank you!

My Light Trek umbrella is still going after three years. I live in a city where the weather changes very quickly and so I always need to carry this umbrella in my bag during autumn, winter and spring. My city also gets very windy. This umbrella has stood the test of time and of wild weather. If the wind is bit too wild - then the umbrella might turn inside out but it has never broken. I have also taken the umbrella with me on various overseas trips. The size of the umbrella is perfect for my shoulder bags. I originally bought a Blunt XS but it wouldnt fit in my shoulder bags so I had to sell it. Thats how I ended up with this amazing umbrella. It is definitely worth it.

Very sturdy and easy to carry around on an iffy day. Yes, it could be bigger but, honestly, who wants to lug around a huge umbrella for the off chance that it MAY be raining when you walk out of the store etc...

Great compact umbrella. It is very light, but seems pretty tough. I havent put it through much wind yet, but so far it has performed very well.

I normally hate umbrellas, but this thing is awesome, its light weight and small. And as another reviewer mentioned before, I recommend getting a color other than black so no one walks out with your umbrella.

No problems! This works great. You get what you pay for, and here youre paying for quality!

Fabulous umbrella, great opening and closing mechanism, the cover works as intended, and its easy to carry in a bag or hooked to it. Fits in a coat pocket, too. And, it stands up to breezes! Highly recommended. Earned its rating from The Wirecutter, which is how I found it.

I bought the silver one, there were several colors to choose from when I bought it, but it says that the silver one gives extra protection from the sun, so thats the one I bought. It is lightweight, I use it about two hours under the sun, and my arm doesnt hurt because of carrying it. I also used it under the rain and I didnt get wet. Even though there was some wind, it didnt brake. It is compact, I pack it in my back pack in the medium size pocket and it fits very well. I just push one button with my thumb, and it opens fully, I push the same button again and it closes, then I just wrap it and lower it to the compact position, it is easy to use. The close position measures about 12 inches long and about 1 3/4 inches wide.

Extremely lightweight. You hardly notice youre carrying it when its clipped to you.
