“We just returned from our week at Emerald Isle with our Shibumi. Loved it! From high wind days to almost no wind days, it had us covered. It’s so easy to set up and take down, we even had a few people stop by to ask about it. Thanks for a great product!”

“You have NO idea how happy we are with our Shibumi Shade! EVERYONE needs one!! Thank you, Shibumi! ”

“At first, my husband and I were concerned about the price of this shade but we were going to The Outer Banks for the week and needed some SHADE. We have been to Portsmouth every year for our anniversary for the last 14 years and every year we try unsuccessfully to use umbrellas, sun tarps, or screen houses. Nothing worked because of the wind over there.

So this year we gave the Shibumi Shade a shot. Oh my gosh! I put it up by myself in less than 2 minutes and had lots of shade. We parked my truck under it and tailgated while we were surf fishing, and still had room for chairs!

This is by far our best camping purchase EVER, plus, it’s so easy I can take it to the beach or anywhere else I need fast shade.

The best part is that the company was created by fellow North Carolinians who know how crazy the beach wind in NC can be. They are all handmade and high quality. I am glad that I am supporting local business owners and I cannot say enough about how wonderful this shade is. Well done Shibumi!”

“Great product. Dump the beach umbrella and get a Shibumi!”

— JOHN O.

“We received our shade as a gift from our daughter. Dane delivered it to our door in Emerald Isle within 2 days after ordering. It is an amazing shade, so easy to put up and take down. We just saw Dane on the beach yesterday and he personally thanked us for buying the shade. Great product, great story, great owners!”

— MARY M.

“It’s light, it’s easy to put up, it’s whimsical, it provides enough shade for a family, you can easily spot it when walking up the beach, it’s a conversation piece, the owners are kind and cool and it came quickly!! Just a few reasons why you should consider getting a Shibumi Shade!”

— JANE H.

“Friends of ours purchased because they saw someone using on the beach and this past weekend a bunch of us girls went to the beach and on the very first use we were able to have it up and ready to go in under 5 minutes. I will be purchasing one for my next trip!”

“For years I’ve been using umbrellas and struggled with keeping them up in the wind. The beach where we vacation ALWAYS has strong winds. I often sat and thought, it must be a better way other than hauling/setting up a heavy tent.

I was about to purchase two large heavy duty wooden pole umbrellas and bring my battery drill to drill down in the sand for quick setup. Other than the tents, that’s about the only thing I’ve seen that can hold up in strong wind.

One of those good umbrellas is about $200, so when a friend told my wife about this we decided to give it a try. It is great! Lightweight and quick setup, just as advertised. Trust me, it’s a no brainer once you use it! Even in very light wind it has worked for us. Obviously it wouldn’t work so well away from the beach where the wind may stop completely.

Great idea and great design, I just wish I’d thought of it!”

— JOHN T.

""I can’t begin to tell you how awesome the Shibumi Shade is. I was hesitant to spend $250 on one but they are well worth the money. I am 54 years old and finally found something I can carry and put up by myself! The service and shipping are excellent too!"
