2025 Ranking: Top 3 Umbrellas That Helped You Beat the Extreme Heat!

There is very little left of 2025. How was this year for you?

Looking back, 2025 was a brutal summer with a continuous streak of record-breaking heat and midsummer days, where the sunshine went beyond merely being "warm" to feeling "painful." Amidst days that made one hesitant to go outside, it can be said that this was truly the "Year of the Parasol," with parasols receiving more attention than ever as partners protecting our daily lives.

Today, we are introducing the Top 3 most chosen products at the AMVEL UMBRELLA STORE in 2025. From the perspective of a specialized manufacturer, let's unpack the reasons why these umbrellas were so well-supported.


2025 was a record-breaking "Year of the Parasol." How did we weather the brutal summer?

The summer of 2025 saw temperatures across the country exceed historical averages. Parasols are no longer just "fashion items for women," but have become essential infrastructure for everyone, regardless of gender, serving as "portable shade" for heatstroke prevention.

This year in particular, we saw many customers seeking not only sun protection but also "plus-one" features such as "thermal shielding" (heat blockage) and portability.

Now, let's announce the three models that received the most support this year.

【#3】HEATBLOCK pentagon

The standard you can carry every day, balancing "lightness" and "light-blocking"

Ranked 3rd is the HEATBLOCK pentagon, which adds light-blocking functionality to the "pentagon" series, synonymous with ultra-lightweight umbrellas.

  • Reason for selection: It achieves surprising lightness while using fabric with a 100% light-blocking rate (total light blocking).

  • Popular with: Those who prefer a minimalist style, often saying, "I want to keep it in my bag every day because I never know when it will get hot."

Without compromising on performance as a parasol, and fulfilling the ideal of "not wanting something heavy," this is truly a modern necessity. Click here for product details


【#2】TOUGHNESS

Light-blocking × Wind resistance. The "strongest" folding umbrella capable of enduring harsh environments

Ranked 2nd is TOUGHNESS, which boasts sturdy specifications as its name suggests. Since there were not only brutal heatwaves but also frequent sudden guerrilla rainstorms and typhoons this year, this "strength" provided a great sense of security.

  • Reason for selection: In addition to excellent light-blocking performance, it features a robust frame structure capable of withstanding strong winds of 30m/s.

  • Popular with: Business professionals who prioritize functional beauty and toughness, saying, "I want to finish with just one umbrella for both sun and rain, no matter the weather."

In an era where harsh weather conditions continue, the peace of mind that it "won't break easily" has become its greatest added value. Click here for product details


【#1】HEATBLOCK VERYKAL

Synonymous with AMVEL. The ultimate form of automatic opening/closing × light-blocking takes the top spot

The #1 model chosen by the most customers in 2025 was the HEATBLOCK VERYKAL! Fitting for AMVEL UMBRELLA STORE customers, this model, which pursues technology and convenience, claimed the top spot.

  • Reason for selection: It docks top-class light-blocking performance with an "automatic opening/closing function" that works with a single touch. It offers overwhelming "time performance" (taipa), allowing you to block the sun without stress even when carrying luggage or getting in and out of vehicles.

  • Popular with: AMVEL fans who prioritize efficiency and want to use high-quality items for a long time.

We received many comments saying, "Because I have the VERYKAL, going out isn't a struggle," making it a bestseller that truly symbolizes 2025. Click here for product details


2025 Trend Summary: From "Tools" to "Environment"

Looking back at the 2025 ranking, what they have in common is trust in the absolute performance of "100% light-blocking and thermal shielding." It can be said that umbrellas have evolved from simple "tools" to stave off rain and light, into devices for comfortably adjusting the "environment" that surrounds you.

It is expected that this heat will continue into next year and beyond. We hope that these umbrellas chosen in 2025 will continue to bring comfort to your daily life.
