Even though it's a long umbrella, it weighs about 172g—half the weight of a vinyl umbrella! The world's lightest long umbrella to make rainy days light The ultra-lightweight long umbrella "KALCT," weighing only about 172g, overturns the conventional wisdom that long umbrellas are heavy and cumbersome. Despite being a standard size (58cm ribs with 8 ribs) that securely protects your belongings, it achieves surprisingly light weight. This is a new concept that combines the security of a long umbrella with the convenience of a folding umbrella. *As of May 2026, based on our own research in the 58cm ribbed and 8-rib umbrella market. [Three Key Features] (1) About half the size of a vinyl umbrella! Surprisingly lightweight: 'Approx. 172g' All parts of the middle rod and bone are made of lightweight yet durable carbon fiber. So light you'll forget you're carrying them, eliminating the burden when going out. (2) Total length: 67cm! A compact that won't get in the way even on trains Compact design about 17cm shorter than typical long umbrellas. The bulky J-shaped handle has been eliminated and replaced with a smart strap design that can be worn on the wrist. (3) Cleared wind speed of 15 m/s! Tough construction that resists breaking even when turned inside out Maintains a reassuring '8-bone' design. With carbon ribs that flexibly absorb wind and design-registered joint parts, it is sturdy enough to withstand being overturned in gusts of wind.
