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

Hago esta reseña en español ya que creo que los compradores que no dominan el inglés también merecen reseñas que les puedan servir al momento de adquirir un producto. Compré la sombrilla hace un tiempo ya pero quise tener el tiempo suficiente para dar un concepto claro, en terminos generales es una sombrilla muy bien fabricada, los materiales son buenos y la robustez de la misma da confianza al momento de usarla, en la ciudad que vivo el tiempo es muy variable por lo que pasar de un día soleado a una tormenta es normal, sin embargo en ambas circustancias no he tenido problemas con la sombrilla por lo cual la uso con total seguridad y tranquilidad, sin embargo hay un problema con el material con el que pintan el mango de madera, ya que facilmente se cae haciendo que la sombrilla tenga un mal aspecto como se ve en la imagen, si eres una persona que debe darle un uso intenso a la sombrilla debes tener cuidado con el mango o en cuestión de semanas comenzarás a ver la pérdida de pintura, salvo este detalle recomiendo por completo el producto.

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 liked my umbrella for the following reasons..... 1.) It was bigger then I was expecting. Which I liked. 2.) It was also more sturdy then I expected. 3.) The supports on the inside to guard against heavy winds I liked. 4.) The wooden handle is of good quality. Dave Ohmer

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

Lighter than common smaller umbrellas. Great feel, feels solid, not delicate, light, love the wood handle and the 2 straps. Used it in a couple of Florida rain falls, so far a great product.

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 isnt every day that one purchases an umbrella - especially when living in the desert. But I did want an umbrella, and having had more than my share of the collapsible, fit-in-your tote variety, I wanted a REAL umbrella, with a wide canopy, one very sturdy and able to withstand high winds and gusts, and strangely, one with a convenient handle. Id been to London/UK and crossed my fingers to see if amazon had a British made umbrella with the features noted above, and Voila!! I found the Collar and Cuffs umbrella with ALL the features I was wanting. It arrived with lightning speed, with a lovely, thoughtful note vowing excellent customer service. Though Ive not yet had opportunity to use the umbrella, I actually purchased TWO umbrellas as gifts for family. My husband helps people to and from the church building in inclement weather, and my beloved Sister lives in upstate New York where it rains frequently and heavily and she typically arrives at her office rather damp on such days. As the beloved sister and I are rather mad Anglophiles, I KNOW she will be tickled pink to use this umbrella after she receives it at Christmas. I told friends of the purchase, and it was so interesting that all three said they wanted the link to amazon so they could buy the umbrella as well. At least one has already purchased the same umbrella herself. So were all quite pleased with this lovely umbrella and it will be well used as occasions warrant. Thank you, COLLAR and CUFFS!!

After the recent California storms eviscerated two cheap umbrellas in a single day, I ordered this British looking umbrella as a replacement. While I waited for it to arrive, the rain kept coming, and I kept getting soaked. It arrived today, right at a break in the rain. Eager to try it out, I waited for the rain to return. An hour later, when the deafening roar of raindrops was echoing off my roof, I got ready to go out to dinner. When I stepped outside with the umbrella, I beheld its awesome power; the rain has stopped. This umbrella doesnt just repel rain, it causes it to stop raining. As I enjoyed a plate of brisket and ribs from my favorite BBQ joint, I watched the rain return outside with a vengeance. Eager to ride into battle with my new rain weapon, I finished up dinner and prepared to venture out again into the torrent. Behold! The magic umbrella had again parted the clouds and stopped the rain. I took the opportunity to open. The umbrella and examine the fine craftsmanship. This is truly the last umbrella you will ever need.

Its worth the price. I got this as a gift for a guy very serious about his umbrella usage. its very strong, and is as described. it will last, its big, and it has a curved handle, as requested. I figured, where else would the best umbrella come from? why from London of coarse. shoot, My dear friend loves his new umbrella so much, he thanks me again and tells me about his rain adventures every time I see him. Hes very proud of his gift, and I feel great that I got him something he appreciates, yay me =)
