Six Moon Designs Base Silver Shadow Ultralight / 8.9 OZ - 252 G / Umbrella

Great umbrella, I bought for thru hiking the A.T. It’s very light about 8.5 oz the only con is it’s long and takes up some space on the outside of a pack

I carried this on the Camino de Santiago! It helped on both sunny and rainy days!

Great umbrella for hiking/backpacking in the hot sun. I do a lot of hiking in the South West and the temps can get 110F+ in the summer time. The best thing about this umbrella is that its light enough to strap to your pack without falling or swaying. It can stand up to a decent amount of wind too, maybe not as much as a normal heavy duty umbrella but the weight and construction alone is worth the buy.

It works as expected - it makes a big difference as a sun shield on a hot day. Very light and storeable

Love this Umbrella. I waited a long time to purchase this item because, why not just use a cheaper umbrella? But now, its my go to option for all umbrella-related needs. The size, weight and usability of the opening mechanism makes it great, not just for hiking conditions but all conditions. I used this hiking in rain as well as in sun. You can definitely feel the difference when using it to keep cool(er) in hot conditions. Because it is so light you can manufacture some sort of holding device on your pack if you want to be hands free. I also decided to travel with this umbrella to Paris instead of bring a collapsible/shorter option because it as just so light and enjoyable to use when needed. Its longer than other ready-use umbrellas but light weight and ease of opening and shutting is more important to me in the long run.

Small, light weight, and big enough to do the job. These reflective umbrellas are outstanding for backpacking and overlanding. I've used this in blistering desert heat. Easily drops felt temps by a good 20-30F and keeps me out of the sun. Love it.

I never thought I’d hike with an umbrella,but this thing is amazing and worth the weight. You really do feel a lot cooler under it in the sun and keeps the rain off. Works great in conjunction with a rain skirt and a light jacket or poncho. Helps with the build up of heat and sweat. The coolest way to hike in the rain in my opinion.

Broke the first time I used it. The attachment point at the top is secured with cheap thread only. I was able to fix it and I don’t like to throw things out that can be used so didn’t return it.. but you might want to find one that has something glued over the seam to protect it.Other than that love using this when I’m backpacking in the Mojave.
