There are two main types of folding umbrellas: 2-fold and 3-fold umbrellas. The key difference between them is in their skeleton structure - a 2-fold umbrella can fold into two sections while a 3-fold umbrella can fold into three sections, making it more compact. Other differences may include cost, size, style and intended use. When choosing a folding umbrella, factors like the handle material, cloth quality, shaft type, and overall size should be considered depending on individual needs and preferences.

2. There are many ways of
categorizing umbrellas, with one
of them being the number of
folding keels supporting the cloth.
This keel is also known as the
umbrella's skeleton, and we have
one (straight), two, three, and five
folding umbrellas based on this
classification.

A two folding umbrella
is one in which the
umbrella’s skeleton
can be folded into two
sections. With their
durable structures, two
folding umbrellas are
portable tools for rainy
and sunny days.

4. A somewhat more
common type of folding
umbrellas is the three
folding one. As its name
implies, it is an
umbrella with three
folding keels, which
means it can be folded
three times.

7. THE HANDLE
The next factor that should
influence the folding umbrella you
get is the umbrella’s handle.
THE CLOTH
The first thing that’ll attract you to
any umbrella you pick up is its cloth.
THE SHAFT
The shaft is located just above the handle. It is
the part of the umbrella that holds the entire
framework in place.
THE SIZE
Finally, the size of a folding umbrella should
play a decisive role in which you eventually go
for.

8. In conclusion
There are quite a lot of folding
umbrellas, but the two folding and
three folding ones are some of the
most common. At first glance, it
doesn’t seem that there is much to
distinguish between the two types of
umbrellas. But a closer look at its
skeleton will reveal the fundamental
difference between two folding and
three folding umbrellas.
