u/4inR · 6 pointsr/onebag

This is the one I got. It's 89 grams (3.14oz), 21cm length (8.26"), 4cm (1.57") diameter when closed. I haven't tested it in the rain yet, but it does seem like it will hold up well.

Pros:

  • Smallest, lightest umbrella I've ever found.

  • Comes with a sturdy hard case that you could use for something? It's too heavy for me to include in my bag, though.

    Neutral:

  • It's a little short when open (~46cm / 18.1" total height), but it opens quite wide (~85cm / 33.46" width).


    Cons:

  • A little pricey.

  • It also takes a small effort to fold the carbon fiber spines (?) into place - they fold in half when not in use.

    ---------------

    My old umbrella was like 260g, not worth carrying for the use/weight ratio imo. This one is just slightly larger than the size/weight of a pair of boxers (67g). Maybe I'll review this once I use it in the rain a few times, but so far I'm happy to have this as a just in case.

Same question I had for OP. 3 oz Montbell is $52, and has been reviewed well (here's one review for example).

My curiosity led me to wonder if any other 3oz umbreallas were on the market, only one that I found in a few seconds of looking was the A.Brolly on Amazon. Might be worth a look /u/cascadegreen, only $30 if you wanted less of an investment.

For the record I have never tried either of these, but have thought about it recently since it friggin rains here all the time!
