COLLAR AND CUFFS LONDON - Windproof EXTRA STRONG - StormDefender City Umbrella - Vented Double Canopy - Auto - Reinforced Frame with Fiberglass - Solid Wood Hook Handle

This is the best umbrella Ive owned. Even strong winds dont flip it thanks to the vented design. Its extremely sturdy with its carbon fiber shaft. The wood handle is great, but I can tell the paint wont last. Ill just refinish the handle when the time comes.

I have wanted a British style umbrella for quite some time. This one doesn’t not disappoint. It arrived quickly. I was very impressed with the quality. The handle is sturdy, the frame is durable. It’s much more sturdy than the other umbrellas I’ve had before. I love the elegant, sophisticated look. Have used it several times and it’s perfect. Holds up well in the wind; no worries about it flipping or breaking. The only thing I would change is the ability to have the handle custom engraved. But I am VERY pleased with my purchase. Highly recommend.

If you want a hearty and sophisticated umbrella, this is a fabulous choice. Perfect, substantial handles and form. I bought them mainly because I wanted just nice, plain black umbrellas for my umbrella stands at the front and side doors of our home but these are super-lovely and moreover highly functional, just ordered another. Very pleased.

Of all of the umbrellas I have owned in my lifetime, this is the best! And you cant help but do the British Strut and imagine you are strolling along Picadilly Circus. Youll want to carry it with you even when its not raining... its that cool!

After a lot of research on reasonably priced umbrellas, I chose this one and have been very happy with it. Ive had it a few years now and it has held up well. My only critique is the thin metal covering on the end that dented pretty quickly. It has stayed on though. Not sure why they chose a thin metal tip - I think a nice rubber tip would be more practical. But that is a minor squabble and this is a great umbrella all in all! Much more sturdy than the old London Fog umbrella it replaced!

It looks and feels very sturdy, even the ribs are made of fiberglass. Its good for dog walking.

liked the large size and quality construction. It just speaks good quality and sturdiness

It is very strong and looks great, the only problem is the fake wood finish comes off the handle pretty easily so you have to be aware of that. The other thing I think I should mention is that maybe its just me, but I thought the umbrella was navy blue in the picture its not, its black.

This is a very nice umbrella. One of the ribs was disconnected from the sleeve that holds the fabric in place on delivery, but this was easy to fix. The handle and fabric are nice and perform well. The plastic components are not of the quality that I expected and am worried a little about its durability. Generally, this is very nice and was intended as an upgrade to my previous umbrella. It is on the handle and strength of the center shaft, but the mechanism durability may not be as good. Replacement was needed as the previous umbrella was old and the fabric was no longer able to perform and had collected holes. Looking for a robust 5 star umbrella and found a nice, but potentially less durable than expected, umbrella that feels as if it will require care, but should give good 4 star service. No reason to not use it and it is certainly worthy recommendation with the noted caveats. As such it is superior to many umbrellas, but less than it might have been... Sorry to have seen the delivery quality issue. A slightly better out of the box experience and upgraded hardware and this would be an easy 5 star umbrella to be proud of and would have been an immediate reorder without consideration when a new one was needed. As is, it give enough pause to cause a search when time for a new one. A little nicer and I wouldnt have bothered to look at another company again.

Love the umbrella - very sturdy. Customer service is excellent as well!
