The Totes Folding Reverse-Close Umbrella with Wind Protection is the lowest-priced verified pick, at $27 on sale for the two-person 55" canopy size, down from $36. Totes rates it windproof up to 75 MPH, the same figure ShedRain publishes for the Vortex V2. The feature that sets it apart for travel is the inside-out fold: the wet side folds in when you close it, so drips stay off your clothes, the car seat or the bag you are carrying. One-touch open and close makes it quick to use at a taxi door or train exit, and the canopy is water repellent. It also comes in one-person sizes with 43" or 46" canopies. The product page we read does not list closed length, weight or warranty length, so it is harder to compare on packability than the ShedRain or Weatherman, and the price is a sale. We compared documented features and published prices and did not test the umbrella.
