How and why should you choose the best golf umbrella?

The golf umbrella is an elegant umbrella design, recognizable not only by its large size but also by its straight handle.

Manufacture Le Parapluie de Cherbourg will help you make the right choice, and we'll show you how to choose the right golf umbrella from our collection.

Features to consider

Choosing an umbrella is by no means a trivial matter. When you look at this accessory, you realize that it has a rich history that has shaped its design over the centuries. Today, there are many different types of umbrella, each with its own design and purpose. That's why knowing how to analyze each piece is essential to making an informed choice. Here's what you need to look out for as a quality umbrella enthusiast.

Umbrella size

The first feature to consider is the size of the umbrella. The Golf umbrella is one of the largest. Our Golf umbrella has a diameter of 127 cm when extended, allowing it to accommodate two people without difficulty.

The giant golf umbrella offers optimum protection from the rain, but also from the sun, as it is an anti-UV golf umbrella. It can be used on the green, whatever the climate, but also in other situations where excellent protection against the vagaries of the weather is required.

The materials

The materials used to make a golf umbrella bear witness to the quality and craftsmanship of the umbrella maker. Manufacture Le Parapluie de Cherbourg is committed to excellence. We offer sturdy taffeta umbrellas, mounted on galvanized steel poles and reinforced with solid carbon steel ribs.

What's more, our attention to detail goes right down to the smallest detail. You'll notice, for example, that our golfer's umbrellas - whether men's or women's - feature an elegant straight beechwood handle. It is also topped by a ruthenium finish ring.

The color

Choosing the color of your future umbrella is particularly important. Beyond its visual appeal, choosing a specific color means highlighting your taste and unique style. So, when choosing the color of your umbrella, keep your wardrobe in mind. You can choose it to blend in perfectly with your outfits, or on the contrary, choose a golf umbrella to create contrast.

Le Parapluie de Cherbourg has selected a range of elegant colors to match different styles. You can opt for a sober color like beige or anthracite, for example. You can also choose to break the mould with bolder colors such as English green or burgundy, among others. In fact, there are so many choices to choose from, you'll be able to express your style to the full.

Finishing options

This special attention makes for a unique umbrella. It's also an option to consider when you want to offer a distinctive gift to a loved one. Giving a personalized umbrella is also an excellent choice for professionals who want to offer unique corporate gifts to some of their best collaborators. It's an effective way of strengthening and perpetuating business relationships.

Types of golf umbrellas

When it comes to choosing the perfect golf umbrella, it's important to consider all the features of the various models. This is particularly true when it comes to ergonomics and the way the umbrella opens. Here's some useful information on this point.

The automatic golf umbrella

The automatic golf umbrella is the ideal companion for golfers and users looking for smooth, easy operation. Equipped with an automatic opening mechanism, this type of umbrella deploys rapidly. It offers instant protection from rain or sun. Its practicality makes it a popular choice, especially on the green, where it allows golfers to concentrate on their game without the hassle of complicated handling. With its generous span, it offers extensive coverage and protects the player and his equipment.

Similarly, automatic golf umbrellas are appreciated for their quick-closing mechanism. They can be easily stowed away between holes without wasting time. The umbrella thus becomes an extension of the golfer's style, combining performance and aesthetics on the green.

The manual golf umbrella

For those who prefer optimum control over their accessory, the manual golf umbrella is a more traditional option. Opening and closing the umbrella requires manual action. Although this may require a little more effort, some golf enthusiasts appreciate this form of opening, which offers more control over the accessory. Although less automated, these manual umbrellas sacrifice nothing in terms of style. That's why it's the choice we made for our "Le Golf" umbrella.

When and why use a golf umbrella?

When the weather on the green turns fickle, the golf umbrella becomes an essential companion for any discerning player. Its use goes far beyond simple protection against the rain. In fact, this versatile accessory can be used in a variety of situations to enhance the playing experience. This is just as true for everyday use.

When the sky clouds over, the golf umbrella becomes a shield against sudden downpours. It protects not only the owner, but also his or her equipment from potential damage. As a result, golfers can continue their game despite the vagaries of the weather, and enjoy the quality of their game whatever the season. Beyond its usefulness in the rain, the golf umbrella also offers protection from the sun's rays. Its protection provides welcome shade on sunny days.

Weather considerations aside, the golf umbrella is a multifunctional accessory. It can be used to mark the player's position on the course, aiding navigation, particularly on large courses. In addition, it can serve as a visual reference point for teammates, promoting more effective communication during team games.
