6 oz - 170 g Trekking Umbrella

Say hello to the lightest, full-size trekking umbrella on the market.

Ultralight umbrellas are one of the most underappreciated pieces of gear out on the trail. The Rain Walker SUL offers more ventilation and weighs less than most rain gear and often keeps you drier.

Description

An umbrella is one of the most versatile pieces of gear you can own. It offers a shield from the rain, shade from the sun, can act as a micro-shelter, and even be used as an anchor point for your tarp or tent. The Rain Walker SUL does all of that at a mere 5.5 ounces.

The Rain Walker SUL is a great alternative to traditional rain gear, especially in hot and humid climates. An ultralight umbrella allows you to dress for the temperature instead of the weather.

And in rainy conditions, you have a great mini shelter for checking maps and guidebooks or even snapping pictures.

Thomas Y. ★★★★★

I've carried it through three rainy day hikes and the 6 oz weight genuinely makes it feel like part of my pack, not an extra burden. The canopy is full-size enough to keep my torso dry while the strap lets me clip it to my hip when the sun breaks through.

Penelope ★★★★★

At 170 grams, I barely notice it strapped to my pack, but the canopy is genuinely full-sized once it's up. Sun or drizzle, it’s become the first thing I grab for any exposed ridge walk.

Avery ★★★★★

I’ve taken this thing on three day hikes now and honestly forgot it was even strapped to my pack until the rain hit. For something that weighs just 170 grams, it covers a full-size canopy that actually kept my upper body dry through a solid downpour. It’s become a permanent resident in my daypack.
