## Questions & Answers

**Q: How can it attach to pack?**
A: You can devise an attachment to a shoulder strap of your pack using cord locks and shock cord. Or you can purchase one of our hands free kits which gives you all the parts you need to do the same. You can find the Six Moon Desgins Hands-Free Kit here: https://www.amazon.com/Six-Moon-Designs-Trekking-Umbrella/dp/B07Z8H3Q2V.

**Q: I just received this umbrella. It appears fairly fragile to me. Would this umbrella survive a two-week hike in rather heavy winds?**
A: It is a little fragile and some of feedback I saw was that it did not do great if really windy,

I used mine three times in heavy rain, some wind, and it performed well, but never heavy wind.

I was glad to have it though when needed    And it tucked nicely into my backpack!

**Q: In this page it says "Weight: 7.1 oz - 201.28 g" and "Weight: 6.8 oz - 193 g" which one is true?**
A: 7.1 oz. The features list will be updated this afternoon.

**Q: Is this the one with the carbon shaft?**
A: No. The Silver Shadow Mini does not have a carbon fiber shaft. We do sell our Silver Shadow Carbon on Amazon and a quick search there will get you right to it.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pleasantly surprised
*by R***W on September 5, 2023*

My adult son and daughter and I went backpacking in Spain. Each of us had one of these umbrellas, expecting to use them to shield us from the sun. Instead, it rained almost every day and the temps were sometimes quite cool.The umbrellas are very lightweight and I had doubts about the sturdiness. After using them in some moderate with sometimes strong winds I am pleased with how rugged they were, and we used them nearly every day for 3 weeks. My son used his last year and made the recommendation to us to also get one. They fold down partially or fully and fit inside or on the side of the backpack. Their light weight makes them great for carrying along when walking around town as well. The ONLY negative comment I have it that you shouldn't expect to ever get the small fold to work. Most of the time we just closed like a regular umbrella and attached them to the side of the pack (with or without the cover). Trying to make that smaller fold where the umbrella is extremely short was just impossible to do neatly. You can fold it that way, but it's going to be wrinkled. It doesn't seem to affect its use, however.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Survived a thru hike
*by A***R on March 25, 2023*

I used it for my thru hike of the AT in 21’ and it lasted the whole way. Hiked in a lot of rain and this sucker got a ton of use but she made it. It’s a little beaten and battered at this point but I will definitely be getting another one for my future hikes. It’s nice and lightweight so it was always worth carrying in my opinion. Just a nice morale booster when it’s down pouring but some of you can stay dry. Highly recommend as a backpacking umbrella!! I never broke it down the whole way, just the main slide-y part since it saved a lot of time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ CDT lifesaver
*by T***K on July 29, 2021*

Kept me in the shade from Crazy Cook to Pie Town, NM without any tears or damage. Will invert in strong winds, a little inconvenient when that keeps happening, but all the other versions of this I saw out there were damaged in some way, this one held up for me.Edit: CDT round 2, same umbrella from Crazy Cook (US/Mexico Border) to Waterton, Alberta Canada. This umbrella has endured sun, rain, snow, hail, wind, and being dragged through desert sand, rocky mountain peaks and passes and forests like a champ. Towards the end there was some slight abrasion around the knuckles that lets the occasion drip in, the company suggested trying seam seal (which I haven't yet) for repair. Still has plenty of life left but I'm thinking about getting another.
