Best UV Golf Umbrella for Canadian Courses, Sun or Rain
Cooler Golfer, Lower Score
Every round puts you through 4+ hours of direct sun exposure. Heat exhaustion dulls your concentration, gives you "heavy hands" and adds strokes over the closing holes.
Keep up to 8°C (15°F) cooler with the only umbrella designed for the tour.
How Heat Wears You Down
Why a Black Umbrella Works Against You
Most players reach for a standard black rain umbrella. It does block light, yet black fabric absorbs 95% of solar radiation and turns the canopy into a heat radiator.
On a 32°C (90°F) day, the pocket of air under an ordinary umbrella can hit 41°C (105°F) or more. Dehydration and fatigue set in sooner, and decision-making suffers on the final holes.
Inside the Solarteck® Advantage
- Reflective Silver Shield: Mirrors sunlight away from the canopy so heat doesn't accumulate underneath.
- Cool Blue Lining: Takes in leftover scattered UV to help protect skin and eyes.
- Vented Mesh System: With its patented double canopy, rising heat escapes overhead and wind passes straight through.
The payoff: you stay up to 8°C (15°F) cooler.
Made to Handle the Course
A Lightning-Safe Build
Each of our golf umbrellas uses a 100% fibreglass shaft and ribs. Steel and aluminum conduct electricity; fibreglass does not, which keeps you safer when a summer thunderstorm arrives without warning.
Built to Resist Wind
Think of our Vented Mesh System as a tough, built-in air channel. When a gust hits, the wind travels through the canopy instead of flipping the umbrella inside out mid-putt.
Ready for Your Cart
Even with canopies this large, 157 cm (62 in) and 173 cm (68 in), the handles slot neatly into standard Golf Cart Umbrella Holders on push carts and riding carts alike.

Golfers Share Their Experience
"I play in Florida summers. This isn't just shade; it's like portable air conditioning. I actually have energy left on the 18th hole."
Mike R. (Palm Beach, Florida)
"Bombproof. I've had it in 30mph gusts on the fairway and it didn't even flinch. The vented mesh really works."
Sarah L. (Scottsdale, Arizona)
"It fits perfectly in my Clicgear push cart. The handle is the standard size, so no wobbling. Best gear upgrade I've made."

UV Golf Umbrella Questions
Does the 68 Inch Golf Umbrella fit in a suitcase?
It won't. The 68 Inch Golf UV Umbrella is a stick model, 109 cm (43 in) long, and needs to be checked as a special item. For flights, the Large Folding UV Umbrella, 147 cm (58 in) is our top pick, since it collapses to 53 cm (21 in) and fits in a carry-on.
Can I use it when it rains?
Yes. All UV-Blocker umbrellas are 100% waterproof and handle thunderstorms well, so your summer sun umbrella keeps you dry the rest of the year. The hydrophobic coating sheds water instantly and never soaks heavy.
How does arc differ from diameter?
The arc follows the canopy's curve over the top; the diameter is a straight line across the open umbrella.
• 173 cm (68 in) arc ≈ 147 cm (58 in) diameter of coverage, which is huge.
• 157 cm (62 in) arc ≈ 135 cm (53 in) diameter, the standard golf size.
