Frequently asked questions
Which umbrella is best suited for strong winds?▾
In strong winds and storms, specially designed storm umbrellas with flexible ribs and an aerodynamic shape are recommended, as the umbrella does not turn inside out during gusts but adapts to the wind. Models from brands such as Doppler, Knirps or Blunt are ideally suited for such conditions.
What is the difference between a pocket umbrella and a stick umbrella?▾
Pocket umbrellas can be folded into a compact format and fit into a handbag or backpack – they are ideal for on the go. Stick umbrellas, on the other hand, are larger, more robust and have a continuous shaft, which gives them greater stability and makes them the classic choice for a daily companion.
Which umbrella size is ideal for everyday use?▾
For daily commuting, a pocket umbrella with a canopy diameter of about 90 to 100 cm is a good choice – it offers sufficient protection from rain while remaining lightweight and handy. Those who want more comfort opt for a stick umbrella with a larger canopy diameter, which also provides reliable protection on stormy days.
How do I properly care for and dry an umbrella?▾
A wet umbrella should be left open and standing to air dry – ideally at room temperature and not in direct sunlight or on a heater, as this can make the material brittle. The umbrella should only be stored folded once it is completely dry to prevent mildew stains and material damage.
What does double automatic mean for an umbrella?▾
A double automatic mechanism opens and closes the umbrella at the push of a button, allowing you to operate it with just one hand. This is particularly practical when getting in and out of a car or when you are carrying bags at the same time and need quick protection from rain.
Which brands offer particularly durable umbrellas?▾
Doppler and Knirps have stood for high-quality and durable umbrellas for decades, with spare parts service and robust mechanics. Blunt and EuroSCHIRM also manufacture umbrellas with a special focus on durability and storm resistance, which will accompany you for many years with careful maintenance.
Are pocket umbrellas really storm-proof?▾
High-quality pocket umbrellas with storm-proof construction – such as models with fiberglass ribs and flexible joints – can certainly withstand stronger gusts of wind, but are structurally less stable than large stick umbrellas. For extreme weather conditions, a dedicated storm umbrella is recommended.
What should I look for when buying an umbrella?▾
Important purchasing criteria are the umbrella size and packed size, the mechanism, the frame material and the fabric quality of the canopy. High-quality umbrellas rely on fiberglass or aluminum frames, double automatic mechanisms and wind-tunnel-tested constructions. It is also worth taking a look at the seam workmanship and the handle shape for optimal comfort.
