Put an end to the binary choice between a long umbrella or a folding umbrella. Ultra-lightweight long umbrellas bring new options.
"The probability of rain today is 30%... Should I use a folding umbrella, or should I use a long umbrella for added security?" Have you ever struggled with such small decisions on a rainy morning?
Until now, the choice between a folding umbrella for portability and a long umbrella for protection from getting wet has been the norm. However, the KALCT long umbrella developed by Amvel Co., Ltd. is redefining that distinction.
About half the weight of a vinyl umbrella. Starting at just 172g, it's even lighter than a folding umbrella.
The biggest feature of KALCT is its surprising lightness the moment you hold it in your hand.
With a 58cm rib, it's large enough to easily cover the shoulders of even an adult man, yet the lightest color weighs just 172g, which is less than half the weight of a typical vinyl umbrella sold at convenience stores and lighter than many high-performance folding umbrellas.
With a weight almost the same as a smartphone, it significantly reduces the stress that comes with carrying a long umbrella, which can be a burden. It is this lightness that has transformed the long umbrella from a tool for special occasions to a partner you can have every day.
Technology that combines the security of a long umbrella with portability
How was it possible to make it so light? The secret is that carbon fiber, the same material used in aircraft, was used for the bones.
It combines high levels of lightness and strength, and is also compact, with a total length of approximately 67cm. It's easy to handle in crowds and on trains. It opens and closes quickly, and it's easy to gather up wet fabrics. While retaining the convenience of a long umbrella, it can be carried around as easily as a folding umbrella.
A new, smart choice that eliminates compromises on rainy days
"I don't know if it's going to rain, but if it does, I want to make sure it's protected from the rain." It's on days like these when the weather is uncertain that KALCT really shines.
Eliminating the choice of not bringing something because it's too heavy means you can always have the best preparations at hand. This means you don't have to buy a disposable plastic umbrella when it suddenly rains, and it's economical, environmentally friendly, and most importantly, leads to a lifestyle that is in line with your own aesthetic sense.
Why not spend rainy days more freely and smartly with KALCT , which is redefining the conventional wisdom about umbrellas?
