Midsize umbrellas: the umbrella for two between regular and golf umbrellas
What makes a midsize umbrella
In terms of size, midsize umbrellas sit right between a classic regular umbrella and a golf umbrella. With a diameter of around 111 to 115 cm, they offer noticeably more protection than a standard regular umbrella of 100 to 105 cm, yet are much easier to handle than a golf umbrella of 120 cm or more. This makes them the ideal umbrella for anyone who wants more room under the umbrella in everyday life without having to carry a large one.
Typical uses
- As an umbrella for two: Midsize umbrellas offer room for two people, for example on the way to the car, to a restaurant or into town together
- With a backpack and luggage: The larger diameter also keeps the backpack on your back, the laptop bag or the shopping bag in your hand dry
- On the way to work: For anyone who walks or takes the bus and train every day and is looking for a reliable companion
- In the city: Generous protection that still does not get in the way in a crowd on the pavement
Highlights from the range
Many of our midsize umbrellas have details that make them stand out from the crowd. On the AC midsize umbrella FARE® Whiteline, white accents on the shaft, ribs and tips create a fresh contrast to the colour of the cover. The AC midsize umbrella FARE® RingOpener® opens particularly quickly: you simply pull the ring on the shaft downwards.
Midsize umbrellas as advertising material
A midsize umbrella is an umbrella for every day. It accompanies its owner on the way to work, when shopping and at the weekend, often for years. Its panels are larger than on a classic regular umbrella, so your logo is easy to recognise even from a distance. And as an umbrella for two, it protects two people at once, so your brand is right in the middle when people share an umbrella.
This makes it suitable as equipment for employees, as a gift for customers who are often on the move, or as a high-quality giveaway at trade fairs and events.
What you can rely on at FARE®
- Operation to suit you: Most midsize umbrellas open automatically at the push of a button, while some models are opened by hand in the classic way. This lets you choose the umbrella that suits your target group.
- Robust build: Many models have a particularly robust and flexible frame that can withstand a strong gust.
- Our advice: If you are looking for even more room under the umbrella, for example for luggage or for use in hotels and at events, you will find it under Golf umbrellas. For a handy umbrella for one person, our regular umbrellas are the right choice.
Your logo on a midsize umbrella
Besides the panels, many midsize umbrellas also offer space for your brand on the handle. An eye-catcher is the midsize umbrella FARE® Gearshift with a handle shaped like a gear knob, where your logo sits. You can find out which methods are possible for your model under Printing umbrellas.
Frequently asked questions about midsize umbrellas
Midsize umbrella or large pocket umbrella: which is the better fit?
A midsize umbrella has a full-length shaft, which makes it more robust and quicker to open. A large pocket umbrella folds up and disappears into your backpack. If you carry your umbrella in your hand every day, a midsize umbrella is a good choice. If you only take it along just in case, a pocket umbrella is the better option.
How do I clean the cover of a midsize umbrella?
Open the umbrella and wipe the cover with lukewarm water, a little mild washing-up liquid and a soft sponge. Do not rub hard over the print. Then rinse with clean water and leave the umbrella open to dry. An umbrella does not belong in the washing machine.
Is a midsize umbrella less handy in everyday life than a regular umbrella?
Hardly. When closed, a midsize umbrella is only slightly longer than a classic regular umbrella at around 85 to 94 cm, and depending on the model it weighs about 450 to 660 g. You will mainly notice the difference when it is open, thanks to the larger canopy.
Are midsize umbrellas available in my corporate colour?
Many models come in several colours, for example the AC midsize umbrella FARE® Style in ten colour combinations and the FARE® Whiteline in nine colours. If your colour is not among them, ask us about custom-made products.
