"Spacious, light, and safe." A large 107cm reflective model that also protects backpacks.
We're overturning the common belief that large umbrellas are heavy and hard to spot on the road at night. The VERYKAL LARGE 3M™ Reflective Material is as wide as a long umbrella, measuring approximately 107cm in diameter, and features the highest level of 3M™ reflective material. This large, automatic opening and closing umbrella is designed specifically for safety, providing excellent protection for you and your belongings from the rain while also ensuring visibility to drivers.
[Three points of emphasis]
-
1. 3M™ reflective material shines brightly on the road at night for unparalleled safety. The 3M™ retroreflective material applied to the entire umbrella makes you visible to drivers, even at night in the rain. The durable print technology ensures long-lasting safety.
-
2. Wide size with a diameter of approximately 107cm that keeps your belongings dry. The main ribs are 60cm long, and when opened, the large design measures approximately 107cm in diameter. Even for larger people or those carrying a backpack, it provides ample rain protection for your body and your valuables. Despite its large size, the carbon frame makes it lightweight at approximately 230g.
-
3. One-touch automatic opening and closing for superior convenience and durability. The automatic opening and closing function opens with the push of a button . Its tough design has passed a durability test of 500 times, making it ideal for daily commutes. It also boasts wind resistance of up to 15 m/s, ensuring peace of mind even in strong winds.
[Commitment to functionality and quality]

Powerful Water-Repellent "Easy-Dry" & PFOA-Free: This item features a powerful water-repellent finish called "Easy-Dry," which removes almost all water droplets with a single shake. Nano-level water-repellent agents penetrate deep into the fibers, maintaining high water-repellent performance even after 20 washes. The PFOA-free water-repellent agent is environmentally and health-conscious, making it kind to both you and the planet.

The true nature of the "emerging light" applied to the entire fabric dramatically improves nighttime visibility
When you're driving at night with an umbrella, can drivers see you?
Have you ever wondered how difficult it is for a driver to see pedestrians on a rainy night? The sound of heavy rain, water droplets hitting the windshield, and the headlights of oncoming vehicles... Under adverse conditions, the presence of pedestrians becomes less apparent than you might imagine.
In particular, when you are using an umbrella, surrounding sounds are blocked and your field of vision is narrowed. Up until now, umbrellas have focused on "staying dry," but I felt that the "visibility" aspect of alerting others to your presence had been left behind. Of course, an umbrella alone cannot completely prevent traffic accidents, and you should never rely on it too much. However, I felt that it was my mission as an umbrella specialist to create a "trigger" that would allow drivers to quickly become aware of the presence of pedestrians.
The idea is to cover the entire surface of the fabric with "light"
During the development process, I focused on the quality and expression of the reflective material. Simply wrapping reflective tape around the edge of the umbrella not only detracts from the design, but also reduces the reflective efficiency depending on the angle at which the umbrella is held.
That's why we adopted 3M™ reflective technology, which supports road safety around the world. This material is characterized by its extremely high retroreflective properties, which reflect light from car headlights and other sources straight back towards the light source.
After much trial and error, we printed this 3M™ reflective material all over the fabric. When light hits it in the dark at night, the umbrella's silhouette becomes a "light that stands out." We adjusted the print density down to the millimeter, achieving a balance between functionality and beauty, blending in with the urban charcoal gray design during the day and increasing visibility at night.
Amber's "framework" combines lightness and strength
No matter how functional it is, it's pointless if it's heavy and difficult to use. In this series, we have prepared three different variations based on the structure of our signature "VERYKAL."
The umbrella frame is generously made of lightweight, high-strength carbon fiber, the same material used in aircraft.Even though it is an automatic opening and closing model, it is so light that you will forget you are holding it.
-
Standard model : The perfect balance of lightness and size.
-
Large Model : It is spacious enough that you won't get wet even if you are carrying luggage.
-
8-rib model : Extremely rigid and able to withstand strong winds, giving you peace of mind.
By combining these bone structures with high-density polyester fabric printed with 3M™ reflectors all over, we have created the ultimate tool that will satisfy even the most spec-conscious gadget enthusiasts.
To all those who walk on rainy roads at night
An umbrella is not just a consumable item to keep you safe from the rain. We want it to be a device that lets you know you are there and provides some support when walking at night.
When you walk with this umbrella, drivers will notice you a little sooner. We hope that this "improved visibility" will help change the way people walk on the roads at night and their awareness. While we cannot guarantee that traffic accidents will be completely prevented, we will continue to strive to reduce the risk through the power of technology. This umbrella is filled with the thoughts of our developers.
