ColourTree Custom Size 13ft x 14ft x 19.1ft Right Triangle Sun Shade

In this review the ColourTree custom size right triangle sun shade sail is judged on durability, sun protection and real-world installation. It is aimed at homeowners and small commercial users who need a large, breathable canopy that blocks sun while allowing airflow. The single biggest reason to buy is the thick 190 GSM 100% virgin HDPE fabric that has been UV tested for extended outdoor life, making it a practical choice for patios, poolsides and carports where long-term sun exposure and heat reduction matter.

Key Features

• 190 GSM Virgin HDPE: Thick, non-recycled fabric provides a durable barrier that resists tearing and fading under prolonged sun exposure.
• UV Stabilized Compound: Lab-tested UV treatment increases lifespan and helps the sail avoid drying out and brittleness in strong sunlight.
• 95% UV Blockage: The woven fabric cuts most harmful UV rays and reduces temperature in the shaded area for more comfortable outdoor use.
• Breathable Construction: The weave allows air and water to pass through, preventing pooling during rain and reducing wind stress on the material.
• Reinforced Edges and Hardware: Double layered stitched seams and stainless steel D-rings improve attachment strength and prevent fraying over time.
• Three Year Warranty: A limited warranty covers normal weather and usage, offering extra assurance on expected durability.

Who It's For

This shade sail suits homeowners who need a large, custom-fit canopy for patios, swimming pools, balconies or carports and who value long-term UV resistance and minimal maintenance. It also fits small commercial spaces seeking a colorful, sturdy shade solution that stands up to intense sun and occasional wind.

People who should look elsewhere include those who need a fully waterproof canopy or a quick temporary cover; this is a breathable, UV-blocking fabric rather than a sealed rainproof tarp. Also, buyers who do not want to source separate hardware should note that installation kits are sold separately.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High quality 100% virgin HDPE material that customers report as durable and colorfast.
• Effective sun protection with 95% UV blockage, creating noticeably cooler shaded areas.
• Breathable design prevents water pooling and reduces wind loading compared with solid tarps.

Cons

• Hardware kits and cables are required but sold separately, so additional cost and planning are needed for mounting.
• The sail is not a waterproof cover, so it will not provide full rain protection like a solid canopy.
