Parasolka Ultralight

The first time a gust flipped it inside out I thought it was broken, but it just pops right back into shape. At 200-something grams it disappears into my jacket pocket, and I've stopped checking the forecast before I leave.

Took this on a rainy commute and was shocked how little it weighs in my bag—barely notice it’s there. The way it folds down is genius for slipping into a backpack pocket, and it handled a gusty crosswalk without tearing, just flexing instead. Solid little shield for the price.

The wind snapped it inside out on a blustery bridge crossing, but it popped right back into shape with no bent ribs. It weighs almost nothing in my tote, so I actually carry it daily instead of leaving it in the car.
