Product Information

Full details

The Totes X-TRA STRONG Auto Open/Close Umbrella is designed for urban commuters and individuals who need a reliable, wind-resistant rain shield in a compact form factor. Its key benefit is a reinforced steel frame engineered to withstand high-force winds and heavy rain without inverting, making it a dependable accessory for stormy weather. While it offers excellent durability, the 28cm folded length means it is better suited for medium-to-large handbags or backpacks rather than small pockets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your umbrella, always allow it to dry completely in the open position before folding and storing. This prevents rust on the steel frame and mildew buildup on the canopy fabric. When closing the umbrella using the auto-button, hold the handle firmly and push the top toward the handle until it clicks into the locked position. Avoid forcing the umbrella closed if it encounters resistance; check that the runner is clear of obstructions. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
