The Swing Light Flex Umbrella, which was specially ordered from Germany’s long-established umbrella specialty brand, “EuroSCHIRM”, is characterized by its light weight. It weighs only 0.57 pounds (about 260g) so it is minimum hassle to carry around. This special-order model is about 4 cm longer than the regular version, improving its usability. You are less likely to get wet even if you have are carrying large luggage.

It also has excellent durability, which tends to be a trade-off for lightness. The arms, which are radially attached from the center of the frame, bend in a spiral shape to efficiently release pressure from strong winds.

In addition, the specially coated high-density fiberglass arm has insulating properties, reducing the risk of being hit by lightning strikes! The fabric is made of lightweight polyester with high tear resistance, and is treated with Dupont’s Teflon to improve water resistance. In addition, it has a UV cutting function to protect your skin from UV rays, so you can use it as a parasol! This is a multi-functional umbrella that can be used all year round.
