What I love most about this sleeping pad is its light weight, and that it packs up very small. I had to send the first one back because of a leaky valve, but received a replacement very quickly. I love the new valve design - it’s very easy to use, and very efficient.

– Constance D., ★★★★☆

The Umbrella Holster allows you to keep your hands free while protecting yourself from the rain and sun with an ultralight umbrella. It easily attaches to the daisy chain on most backpack's straps. In calm weather you can keep both hands on your trekking poles, while in strong wind or driving rain you can rest one hand on the umbrella to control the angle.

The Umbrella Holster consists of a clip and an adjustable shock cord loop that attaches to your shoulder strap.

Attach the buckle above the sternum strap on your strap's daisy chain and then attach the shock cord loop at the bottom of the daisy chain.

Insert your umbrella into the clip and then cinch the shock cord tight around the umbrella’s handle.

Perfect for use with our Lotus UL Umbrella.

Upspec’d with ultralight and durable Ultra fabric, this wallet is designed to carry your ID, essential cards, and cash while handling the daily abuse of being on the go.
