What makes MoonShade different from other awnings and sunshades?Updated 3 years ago

There are MANY things that make MoonShade your favorite piece of gear, but we keep it simple. The top three things that make MoonShade stand out from other awnings and sunshades on the market are its versatility, portability, and design.

1. VERSATILE

While many of the portable awnings and sunshades on the market are designed for only one purpose or space (i.e, the side of a vehicle, the beach, etc.), with MoonShade, we’ve created a shade solution that is as versatile as your imagination. Our simple and thoughtful design allows you to attach MoonShade to any kind of vehicle, as well as trees, fences, patios, and almost anything else you might come up with. 

Looking for...

a sunshade to hook to the fence at your kid’s ballgame?

an awning to mount to the back of your SUV to tailgate and grill-out in comfort before the big game?

a sunshade to attach to a tree while you’re camping?

the perfect van life awning that you can mount to the side of your vehicle, yet quickly pack up to take elsewhere?

MoonShade has you covered.

Using the included carabiners, suction cups, and strut pole, along with fixed mounting points (roof racks, fences), and other accessories you may already have at home (such as hammock straps), the possible configurations of MoonShade become endless.

2. PORTABLE

Because we designed MoonShade to be versatile, we also made it easily portable. We want you to be able to quickly pack it up and comfortably carry it wherever you’re going. MoonShade packs up to about the size of a yoga mat carrier and weighs in at around 8 pounds. The lightweight carry bag with adjustable shoulder strap makes toting MoonShade a cinch. MoonShade's small packed size and low weight ensure it's with you on every adventure. 

3. METICULOUSLY DESIGNED

At every turn, we designed MoonShade with you and the elements in mind.

• We use durable, lightweight materials that will last for all of MoonShade's components.
• Simple, intuitive assembly means you spend more time relaxing.
• Placing the tension poles above (but not in contact with) the fabric allows us to create a strong self-supporting structure.
• The slightly-domed shape created by the arc of the tension poles also allows for rain to roll off the sides of MoonShade.
• This shape combined with a reflective undercoating evenly disperses light from your lantern clipped to MoonShade's dedicated center clip.
• A wide and growing assortment of MoonAnchors means you can use MoonShade on more occassions.
• And the list goes on...
