[Shape-stable processing] The "Selfold" series, developed to solve the difficulty of folding umbrellas, is finally here! Typical shape-stable umbrellas are made by attaching a sheet to the umbrella fabric, which can be heavy, and the sheet may peel off during use, which can put stress on the bones. On the other hand, KIZAWA's shape-stable umbrella uses a special heat treatment to create creases in the fabric itself, so it remains light and can be assembled more quickly and neatly than the regular folding umbrellas sold at our store. (Since this is a completely blackout parasol and the fabric is thick, you will need to adjust the folds of the umbrella by hand.)
[Compact and convenient to carry] Only 26cm when stored! Weight approximately 220g~230g. Lightweight and designed to be carried every day! It has a convenient size that allows it to be easily carried and stored in the pocket of a bag. It won't be a burden even if you put it in your bag or handbag and carry it around every day! In addition, the handle, which is the key to a high quality umbrella, is made of luxurious bamboo (natural bamboo). The tasteful texture of the baked material makes you feel warm just by touching it. A reliable piece that protects you from rain and sunlight!
[100% shading rate/100% UV shielding rate] Completely blocks sunlight! This is a high-performance parasol that was tested by the inspection agency Japan Textile Products Quality Technology Center (QTEC) using the measurement method specified by JIS, and was shown to have a light blocking rate of 100%, a UV cut rate of 100%, and UPF50+. Achieved 100% cutting rate of the fabric itself and first class light blocking! By applying a film lamination process to the inside of the fabric, it has a firm texture and blocks sunlight. Improved durability! It completely blocks sunlight and is the perfect item for UV protection. (In February 2024, we conducted a quality inspection in accordance with the JIS L 1055 A method at the Japan Textile Products Quality Technology Center (Q-TEC), and obtained a fabric quality inspection report with 100% light blocking rate and 100% UV blocking rate.)
[Excellent heat shielding effect/sunscreen protection] Excellent heat shielding effect makes you feel as cool as in the shade of a tree! A cool umbrella that firmly blocks visible and infrared rays that make you feel hot! Measurements at QTEC have demonstrated that the temperature rise can be suppressed by approximately 18.5℃. It cuts UV reflections from above and absorbs reflections from below, preventing UV rays from concentrating on your face and neck, blocking sunlight and direct heat, creating a shady space under the scorching midsummer sun. Perfect for mask burns and sunscreen.
[Attention to detail and great as a gift] The opening of the folding umbrella bag expands by removing the button, making it easy to store. It comes with an eggplant ring, so you can hang it on the handle of your bag, making it convenient to carry around! It also comes with a nail guard to prevent your nails or fingers from getting caught when opening and closing, so you can easily open the umbrella with just a little force. In addition, by using wind-resistant high-strength glass fiber at the tip of the main rib, we have improved the flexibility and durability of the main rib by passing strong winds. Rich color variations! Available in 8 colors with bicolor design. It goes perfectly with both casual and neat clothes. If you send it as a gift for birthdays, Mother's Day, anniversaries, Respect for the Aged Day, etc., you can show off your unique taste.
[Please note] Due to the special nature of the shape-stable fabric and the lamination process, the fabric itself is water repellent, but the effect is weaker than that of regular umbrellas. We recommend that you use it mainly as a parasol. In addition, since it is a completely blackout parasol, the fabric is thick, so it is impossible to fold it up like a rain umbrella, and the folds of the umbrella must be adjusted manually to some extent.
