Weatherman was founded by a meteorologist who was tired of umbrellas that turned inside-out at the first gust — so he built one that doesn't. The result is a travel umbrella engineered for real weather: a wind-resistant frame that shrugs off the kind of squall that destroys servo umbrellas, one-handed automatic open and close, and a compact fold that disappears into a bag or a car door pocket.
The Travel Shop stocks the Weatherman travel umbrella range in Australia — authorised stock, full warranty, free shipping nationwide.
Built for the Weather
The whole point of a Weatherman is that it holds up when you actually need it. The vented, wind-resistant canopy is designed to flex and recover rather than flip, and the automatic mechanism means you can open it one-handed as you step out of the car and close it just as fast on the way back in.
A Colour for Everyone
The Travel Umbrella comes in a full range of colours — from classic black and navy through to sage, blush, rusty orange and neon yellow — so it's easy to spot yours on a hook and hard to leave behind. Every one folds down to the same compact travel size.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are Weatherman umbrellas good in strong wind?
That's exactly what they're built for. The wind-resistant frame is designed to flex and recover in gusts that turn cheaper umbrellas inside-out, which is why they've become a favourite for exposed commutes and coastal weather.
Is the Weatherman umbrella automatic?
Yes — the Travel Umbrella opens and closes automatically at the push of a button, so you can manage it one-handed getting in and out of the car.
