52 IN Extra-Large Golf Reverse Travel Folding Umbrella (Auto Open/Close) – Portable, Windproof/Rainproof
Product description
What it is and why people buy it
This 52 IN extra-large golf business umbrella is built for situations where one person’s coverage isn’t really enough. On paper, that bigger canopy (132cm diameter) is there to comfortably cover about 2–3 people without everyone huddling in a tight circle.
It’s aimed at professionals who commute, attend meetings, or head out for golf or group occasions, and want something that feels more “business ready” than a basic budget brolly. There’s also a strong practical angle: it’s a reverse folding umbrella with reverse auto open/close, so you can open and close one-handed with a button, and (importantly for wet-weather behaviour) it stores more cleanly without soaking your surroundings as much as some forward-folding designs.
It may not be a miracle cure for truly extreme wind, but the combination of an extra-large canopy and 10 ribs suggests it’s designed to be more stable than the flimsiest umbrellas when the weather turns.
Key features that affect everyday use
The standout here is the reverse auto open/close system. Instead of fiddling with a latch while you’re carrying bags, a coffee, or dealing with your phone, you can open and close with a single touch.
That’s the kind of detail that matters when you’re moving quickly from car to pavement, or from reception to car in light rain. The reverse design also tends to make stowing easier because the wet side is kept under control when folded away.
You get a business-style print, plus a matching zippered pouch. The pouch isn’t just a nice-to-have, it’s also what helps you keep things tidy when you’re in a hurry—useful if you’re going straight from outside back to an office, hotel, or meeting.
The essentials (and the limits to bear in mind)
If your priority is coverage for more than one person, this umbrella’s “extra-large” approach makes sense. The canopy size (132cm / 51.97in diameter) and the fact it’s made for golf/business group use point to shared coverage rather than solo carry.
However, bigger usually means a trade-off. You should expect it to feel less compact than small everyday umbrellas. It does fold down to 39 cm, and the weight is listed as 700 g, which is fairly manageable for an umbrella of this size, but it still won’t behave like a tiny pocket model.
Also, while it’s described as windproof/rainproof and uses 10 fiberglass ribs for enhanced wind resistance, “windproof” in umbrella marketing can be optimistic. On genuinely stormy days, no folding umbrella is going to perform like fixed-site shelter.

Who it suits (and who should probably look elsewhere)
It makes sense if you often find yourself covering more than one person—work colleagues walking together, a partner accompanying you, or group outings like golf days. It also suits buyers who want a professional-looking umbrella that doesn’t look out of place alongside a suit.
It might not be the best match if you mainly want the smallest possible umbrella for daily pocket carry, because the canopy is intentionally large. Likewise, if your use is mostly solo and you rarely deal with heavy rain/wind, you could save yourself hassle with a more compact model.
Worth considering if you’re buying for someone who values convenience (auto open/close), neat storage (zip pouch), and fewer wet-drip moments when packing up.
Practical tips for getting the best out of it
A simple scenario: you’re arriving at a station with bags and it starts raining. With the reverse auto open/close, you can open with a button rather than reaching for a manual mechanism, then close before stepping back into the car or office. Once you’ve closed it, the reverse stow helps keep the mess more contained—handy if you’re trying to protect clothes and avoid dripping water across floors.
Before buying, it’s also worth thinking about where you’ll store it. A zippered pouch is convenient, but this is still an extra-large umbrella, so consider whether your car boot, workplace drawer, or travel bag has space.
Is it worth it?
If you want one umbrella that leans into shared coverage and professional presentation, this 52 IN extra-large reverse travel folding umbrella is a solid “proper coverage” pick. The reverse auto open/close feature is the sort of practical upgrade that makes day-to-day use smoother, especially when you’re juggling other items.
You may want to skip it if you prefer very compact umbrellas, or if your weather is consistently extreme—in those cases, bigger umbrellas can still struggle compared with true shelter.
For commuters, business travellers, golf outings, and group walks where you’d rather cover 2–3 people comfortably, it’s easy to see why people consider it. Just keep expectations realistic about wind: the 10 fiberglass ribs are there to help, not to guarantee calm conditions.
