The Problem

The sun on your face
cuts your session short.

You came to lay out, but the sun beating on your face makes it uncomfortable. You squint, overheat, and end up calling it early.

😩

The Towel-Over-Face Move

It blocks the light but traps heat, makes breathing stuffy, and you can't see anything. You rip it off after five minutes.

🧢

Hats Don't Work Lying Down

Hats fall off the moment you lie flat, press awkwardly against your head, or don't block the angle of the sun at all. Plus: hat hair.

Beach Umbrellas Shade Everything

Full-size umbrellas shade your entire body — defeating the purpose if you want to be in the sun. They're bulky, tip over, and crowd everyone around you.

A tiny umbrella.
Designed exactly
for your face.

Solstie is a compact face umbrella. Collapsed, it slips into any beach bag. Extended, the 24-inch shaft stands firm with a 2-foot canopy that shades precisely your face — so the sun stays off it and you stay comfortable for hours. A built-in tilt mechanism lets you track the sun as it moves. Two interchangeable inserts — a screw for sand or grass, and a chair clamp — let you use it anywhere.

One umbrella.
Three homes.

The Pool

Swap to the chair clamp insert and attach to any chaise lounge, pool chair arm, or patio furniture rail. Hotel patios, cruise ships — if there's a chair, Solstie fits it.

The Backyard

The ground insert screws into grass or a garden bed just as easily as sand. Lay out in your own backyard with total face comfort — no setup headaches.

Ground Screw

Every detail earns its place.

Sun-Follow Tilt

Reposition the canopy as the sun moves — with one hand, without getting up. Stay comfortable no matter where the sun is.

Beach Bag Ready

Collapses on itself to a compact size that fits alongside your towel and sunscreen. Take it everywhere.
