London rain is relentless, and cheap brollies that flip inside out at the first sign of a breeze are a waste of time. This full-length stick umbrella is built to actually survive the elements. With its generous 138cm open diameter, it offers serious coverage, easily keeping you and your bag dry on the wettest commutes.\n\nThe solid black canopy features the brand's signature rounded, tensioned edges, meaning no sharp points to poke passersby on crowded pavements. It has a reassuring weight of 910g, giving it a sturdy, balanced feel in the hand without feeling like a workout to carry.\n\nAt 95.5cm when closed, it is a proper traditional stick design that looks sharp whether you are heading into the office or out for Sunday lunch. It is a practical, hard-wearing piece of engineering that does exactly what it promises when the heavens open.
