Ultralight, Packable Sun and Rain Protection for Every Adventure

​Engineered to shield you from both intense sun and unexpected downpours, the Montbell Travel Sunblock Umbrella 50 is an essential addition to any travel or trail kit. The silver-coated exterior effectively reflects heat and blocks 99.7% of UV radiation with a UPF 50+ rating, while the black underside absorbs scattered light to drastically reduce glare. Utilizing a resilient 6-rib carbon frame and 30-denier polyester, this umbrella delivers robust weather protection at a near-weightless 124 grams.

Why We Love It

​At X-Boundaries, we value gear that seamlessly transitions from the backcountry to the city streets. We love the Travel Sunblock Umbrella 50 because it provides reliable, portable shade without weighing down your daypack or tote. It folds down to a highly compact 23 cm (9.1 inches), making it the perfect companion for unpredictable weather on hikes, travel days, or simple errands around town. The dual-purpose design means you get a high-performance sunshade and a reliable rain umbrella all in one ultralight package.

Care & Maintenance

• ​To preserve the silver coating, structural integrity, and longevity of your umbrella, please follow these guidelines:

• ​Opening: Do NOT press the button on the runner when opening. Extend the shaft, pull out each rib one by one, straighten all ribs, and then open the canopy. Forcing it open without straightening the ribs can cause them to snap.
• ​Closing: Press the button on the runner to close, and gently push the handle down.
• ​Cleaning: Wipe the canopy clean with a soft, damp cloth.
• ​Drying: Air dry fully in a well-ventilated, shaded area before folding away. Leaving the umbrella wet with other items can cause color transfer or degradation.
