For all the improvements we\u2019ve seen in outdoor gear over the years, portable shade hasn\u2019t changed all that much. If you want enough coverage for a few people, you\u2019re probably dragging around a bulky folding canopy that takes up half the trunk and occasionally requires another adult to help wrestle into place. If you want something easier to carry, there\u2019s the unreliable umbrella.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Shibumi has better ideas.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Shibumi was born from a simple observation. Beach shade hadn\u2019t evolved in decades. Beachgoers were still lugging heavy pop-up canopies and flimsy umbrellas to the sand and hoping they stayed put when the wind picked up. Yeah, right.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Shibumi took a different approach, creating <\/span>a radically lightweight shade<\/span> designed to work with the wind rather than fight against it. In the process, the brand helped rethink what portable beach shade could look like.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n And as Shibumi began looking beyond the beach, the team saw a remarkably similar problem.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Now, Shibumi is taking that same less-is-more approach with the <\/span>Park Vista<\/span>, a portable shade system designed for parks, sports sidelines, lake days, backyard hangs, and just about anywhere else you might find yourself standing in the sun wishing you\u2019d brought some shade.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
