Yes, the world famous one ounce umbrella  holder is for real.  It is simply 
some gray foam pipe installation (buy at  Lowe's or HomeDepot) cut to fit 
your umbrella shaft.  Then use some Velcro  to attach it to the pack shoulder 
strap.  The idea is to make the shaft  thicker, so it will fit to the 
shoulder strap easily.
 
With the Golite umbrella, you have to  take the foam off the shaft to lower 
the umbrella.  My umbrellas does not  have that problem, since it collapses 
at the top and does not go down the shaft  of the umbrella.
 
Cheers,

This umbrella was developed for fishermen. It not a joke. It is a  real.
