Light in Hand, Easy on the Day
Feather-Light Shade &Shelter: BOC’s Travel Carbon UV Umbrella — from Brooklyn Commutes to the Catskills
A sun-baked afternoon can turn into a sideways downpour before you finish your coffee. That’s why BOC built one piece for both extremes: the Travel Carbon UV Umbrella, a feather-light, travel-ready companion that keeps you cooler under harsh rays and dry in heavy rain, without weighing you down or clashing with your outfit.
Featherlight in the hand, invisible in the bag, on-call the moment the weather pivots.
Sun and storm, covered
This is true all-weather protection. The canopy delivers nearly total light blocking to cut glare and UV exposure, helping you feel up to about 9°F cooler in direct sun. When the sky opens up, the tightly woven, durable fabric sheds water fast and stands up to intense rain.
Think of it as pocketable shade: in the midst of changing skies, a quiet you can hold.
Carbon strength, carry-on weight
At just 5.6 oz, it’s lighter than many phones yet far from fragile. Key frame elements use carbon fiber for a balance of strength, flex, and longevity, backed by ABS, steel hardware, and a performance polyester canopy. It resists wind stress and daily wear without adding bulk.
The balance is what you feel: composed, then forgotten.
Pack, stash, keep moving
Fold it in a flash and slip it into the included drawstring pouch, designed to store even when wet. Cinch it closed and drop it into a tote or daypack, and the pouch helps keep everything else dry while you catch a ride or make your train. Compact and unfussy, it disappears until the next burst of sun or rain.
A small calm in the middle of the city’s weather.
Designed for everyday style
Forget the shiny, plastic “rain-only” look. The understated silver finish feels at home on bright days and adds polish on stormy ones. Coverage is unisex and confidence-inspiring: a generous 39-inch canopy protects without the bulk of a golf umbrella. Whether you’re weaving through Brooklyn at rush hour or stepping onto a trail in the Catskills, it looks intentional, not improvised.
It pairs easily and stays out of the conversation.
If your days swing between glaring sun and sudden showers, the Travel Carbon UV Umbrella is the simple answer: cooler under UV, drier in rain, tougher over time, and barely there in your bag. It keeps pace with your city routine and your out-of-town escapes, proof that smart design can make weather an afterthought.
Pack it once and forget it—until it quietly proves why it’s there.
