Totes Blue Line Golf Size Auto Open/Close Umbrella, Water Repellent Canopy, Black

This umbrella is pretty great for students. Its wide enough when open to shield a person and a backpack, yet small enough when closed to carry around daily. It will most likely fit in the side, water bottle compartment, if you need a place to stash it when its not in use. It has withstood the admittedly mild Californian climate so far, and Im sure it will continue to do so. While its true that the underside may feel a bit damp after using it in the rain, it has never led to actual water droplets leaking in so far. Also, it may be a bit large while walking on the sidewalk though, so be careful not to poke people as you walk by!

The umbrella is keeps most of my 6 foot tall body dry, collapses small enough to fit in the space between the drivers door and the front car seat.

Seriously, it is a pretty good umbrella, as Totes usually are. I keep one in my bag for commuting and use it occasionally, but I have had to replace it every couple of years. I do not use it very often or for long periods of time, but it has failed. A good breeze will easily flip it inside out and it wont be long until one of the frame arms bend/break. For the money, I just keep buying new ones, as needed.

I love this umbrella, I have three of these. The span of the umbrella is perfect; its big enough where Im covered even when its a down pour, but small enough where I dont feel like I have to constantly adjust for other pedestrians in NYC. The auto open and close feature makes this umbrella so easy to handle. The only thing that could improve this umbrella is if it had that extra wind resistant layer on top.

Great umbrella. Its small enough to throw into my purse when its closed but then big enough to cover two people when open.

Great Umbrella!

I like everything about it I have one before that’s why I bought it. Excellent product and excellent service from Amazon.

Bought it for mum she loves it nice and compact but big enough for heavy rain

Not the smallest umbrella you will find but for me it hits that sweet spot between too small to do any real good when open and too large to be practical for anything this side of dueling. Opens to a size large enough to give a decent-sized guy and his bag satisfactory coverage, but can still be tucked in a larger backpack or strapped to the side of messenger bag. Construction is solid, handled windy days well enough, strong seems, smooth mechanisms and thicker fabric.
