Custom Umbrella Size Reference
Hongjie Umbrella with over a decade of expertise in crafting umbrellas, we’ve mastered every detail of umbrella design – which means no size restrictions for your custom orders, including golf umbrella for custom orders. Simply tell us the type and dimensions you need, and we’ll bring your vision to life with precision.
For detailed requirements, typical parameters include:
● Arc radius of the canopy
● Under-umbrella diameter
●Closed/folded length
● Number of ribs
Reference diagrams for common umbrella types (straight-handle, folding, mini, golf) are shown below:
(Note: We also offer children’s umbrellas, head umbrellas, and more.)
However, when referring to an umbrella model, we only typically use two key parameters as identifiers: the canopy’s arc radius and the number of ribs.
For example:
A 62"&8K golf umbrella = 31-inch arc radius + 8 ribs golf umbrella, suitable for high school emblem golf umbrellas.
For standard umbrella sizes catered to US and European clients, we typically reference the dimensions outlined in the table b

Frequently Asked Questions
How to choose the under-umbrella diameter according to the body type of the target population?
For adult individuals, 90-100cm is recommended (can be relaxed to 100cm for European and American populations); for two people, it needs to be ≥120cm (such as 34” golf umbrellas); for children, choose according to height: 60cm for those under 110cm, 70cm for those 110-150cm, to avoid difficulty in handling due to oversize. Especially for children aged 3-6, an under-umbrella diameter exceeding 70cm may easily cause instability and falling.
What is the matching principle between the number of ribs and size?
What production challenges will be faced when customizing unconventional sizes (such as 40” extra-large umbrellas)?
Which has a greater impact on portability between the "folded length" and "unfolded size" of folding umbrellas?
Folded length directly determines whether it can fit into a backpack/handbag (≤25cm for commuting scenarios, ≤20cm recommended for ladies’ small bags); unfolded size affects use in narrow spaces (such as elevators and crowded streets, ≤90cm is more flexible). Both need to be considered, prioritizing the most frequently used scenarios — daily commuting focuses on folded length, while outdoor scenarios focus on unfolded size.
What are the differences in preferences for umbrella sizes in different climate zones?
Rainy and windy areas (UK, northwest coast of the US) prefer 30”-34” large sizes (wind resistance ＞8 levels), focusing on protection area; dry and less rainy areas (Southern Europe, Middle East) favor 21”-23” small folding umbrellas (weight ＜300g), emphasizing portability and fashionable design; tropical rainy seasons tend to 30” medium sizes (balancing sun protection and rain protection).
