Ultra-Lightweight Rain Protection for the Trail and the City

​Never get caught unprepared when the weather turns. The Montbell Trekking Umbrella 50 provides an exceptional level of portable rain protection to keep you and your gear dry on the trail or during your daily commute. Masterfully balancing extreme lightness with surprising durability, this ultra-compact umbrella utilizes an advanced 8-rib carbon fiber frame to achieve the wind resistance required in the backcountry. With its highly hydrophobic polyester canopy, water drops effortlessly bead up and fly off, allowing you to quickly stow it in its included case without soaking your pack.

​Why We Love It

​At X-Boundaries, we know that carrying heavy, bulky rain gear isn't always ideal—especially for quick day hikes or navigating unpredictable tropical showers in the city. We love the Trekking Umbrella 50 because it solves this problem beautifully. Weighing an astonishingly light 139 grams (4.9 oz), you will completely forget it is in your bag until the sky opens up. Unlike cheap, flimsy travel umbrellas, Montbell's 8-rib carbon construction delivers incredible strength and stability in gusty conditions, making it a reliable, long-lasting essential for any outdoor enthusiast.

​Key Features

• ​Ultralight Durability: The 8-rib carbon fiber construction provides exceptional strength and trail-ready wind resistance at a fraction of the weight of standard steel or aluminum umbrellas.

• ​Hydrophobic Canopy: Crafted from 20-denier polyester with a premium water-repellent finish, the canopy stays taut, sheds water instantly, and is incredibly easy to fold.

• ​Compact Storage: The innovative 2-step folding construction allows the umbrella to pack down to a highly portable 10.2 inches (26 cm), easily slipping into a daypack or tote.

• ​Convenient Carrying: Comes complete with a dedicated umbrella case for clean, dry storage when you transition indoors or back onto the trail.

​Important Product Information & Usage

​To ensure the longevity of your Trekking Umbrella 50, please observe the following guidelines:

• ​Opening: Do NOT press the button on the runner when opening the umbrella. Extend the shaft, carefully pull out each rib one by one, straighten all ribs completely, and then open the canopy. Attempting to force the umbrella open without straightening the ribs can cause them to snap.

• ​Closing: Press the runner button to close. Gently push and store the handle; applying excessive force may cause damage.

• ​Wind Safety: While designed for the trail, the umbrella may still become damaged if used in extremely strong, gale-force winds. Always be mindful of your surroundings and other people in the area during use.

• ​Drying: Leave the umbrella open in a shaded, well-ventilated area to dry completely before long-term storage to maintain the water-repellent finish.
