Product Information

Full details

The ATEK Windproof Travel Umbrella is designed for daily commuters, students, and frequent travelers who require reliable weather protection in a compact form factor. Its primary strength lies in its vented double canopy and reinforced frame, which provide significant stability during gusty conditions; however, its compact design means it offers less total coverage than a full-sized golf umbrella.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this umbrella suitable for heavy winds?

Yes, the vented double canopy design is specifically engineered to handle high wind speeds, though it should be held against the wind for best results.

How do I clean the canopy?

Wipe the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow it to air dry completely while open.

Does it come with a cover?

Yes, it includes a protective sleeve for easy storage in bags.

What is the weight of the umbrella?

The umbrella weighs 379g, making it lightweight enough for daily carry.

Can I put the umbrella away while wet?

It is not recommended. Always dry the canopy fully before storing to prevent mildew and damage to the fabric.

What is the length when folded?

The umbrella is 30cm long when fully collapsed.

Troubleshooting

The umbrella does not stay open when button is pressed.

Ensure the shaft is fully pushed down into the handle until it clicks before attempting to open it again.

The umbrella is difficult to close.

Do not force the shaft. Ensure the canopy is fully collapsed first, then push the shaft down with both hands until it resets.

Water is leaking through the canopy.

Ensure the umbrella is fully extended; if the fabric remains damp for long periods, consider applying a specialized fabric waterproofing spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your umbrella, follow these care instructions:

Drying: Always leave the umbrella open in a well-ventilated area until it is completely dry before folding it. This prevents the development of mildew and fabric staining.
Closing: To close the umbrella, press the button to collapse the canopy, then hold the handle and the top cap simultaneously to push the shaft down until it clicks into the locked position.
Storage: Use the included protective sleeve when stored in a bag to prevent the canopy from catching on zippers or other sharp objects.
Maintenance: Periodically check the ribs for any debris. If the frame feels stiff, ensure no fabric is caught in the hinge mechanisms.
