Japanese Anti-UV umbrella 'Komori'
Japanese Anti-UV Umbrella 'Komori' — Modern Sun and Rain Protection
Japan's relationship with umbrellas goes well beyond rain protection. In Japanese cities, the higasa (parasol) is part of daily life, particularly in summer when UV levels rise and fair-skin preservation has been a cultural priority for centuries. The Komori edition brings that sun-protection tradition into a modern compact umbrella — built for today's commutes while honoring Japan's parasol heritage.
Unlike the bamboo wagasa that inspired much of Japanese umbrella imagery, the Komori is designed for everyday modern use. An automatic opening mechanism makes it practical for quick transitions between rain and sun, while the 62cm diameter provides coverage without the bulk of traditional parasols. The handle is crafted in oak wood for a warmer, more natural feel than synthetic materials.
At just 250 grams, this umbrella fits easily into a bag without adding noticeable weight. The compact folded size makes it suitable for backpacks, handbags, or small carry setups — the kind of umbrella you actually remember to bring rather than leave at home. Designed with eco-friendly principles in mind, combining durability with responsible material choices.
The Komori works as a practical daily companion for anyone in a sunny or rainy climate — commuters, travelers, outdoor professionals, anyone who spends time walking in variable weather. A thoughtful gift for city dwellers, travelers, or anyone drawn to Japanese design blending tradition with modern function.
