A large men's umbrella is the best escape from the rain

When talking about umbrellas, foggy Albion immediately comes to mind. Somehow, Britain is always associated with rain, gusts of wind and fog. Umbrellas-canes are peculiar attributes of English gentlemen from the century before last.

However, an umbrella is not only history and traditions, it is also an indispensable accessory for a modern person.

The umbrella protects not only from heavy rains, but also from light drizzle, thick fog, strong winds and snowfall.

To date, the attention of consumers in leather goods stores and various accessories is presented with a huge selection of umbrellas for men, women and children's models.

They differ from each other in size, color and style.

Men's umbrella will emphasize the sense of style and taste of its owner. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully and carefully approach the choice of this accessory.

Any umbrella can be used both for its intended purpose and as an additional accessory (the last aspect concerns only an umbrella in the form of a cane). In fact, the intended purpose of a men's umbrella is no different from an umbrella for women or children. After all, this accessory is necessary for every person, so as not to get wet.

Of course, men quite often refuse to use an umbrella, arguing as follows: "I have a hood."The hood is a great option, it protects your head well from raindrops. But does the hood protect all clothes from getting wet?

And if the rain is heavy, the clothes can get wet, which is very uncomfortable. And in the cold season it is also dangerous for health, as you can easily catch a cold. The hood covers the head from the rain.

But what if it's raining outside with strong gusts of wind? Then it is easy to get wet and the hood will have to be held all the time so that it is not blown away by the wind. So using a hood instead of an umbrella is completely impractical.

Unlike women's umbrellas, models for men have more capacious dimensions and are made in classic or rather restrained colors. When choosing an umbrella, it is necessary to take into account the fact that this accessory not only performs its main functions, but also gives respectability and solidity to its owner.

Despite the fact that men's fashion is not as multifaceted and diverse as women's, the choice of umbrellas for men's models is represented by a wide range. In order not to get lost in such a variety, you should initially decide on the model of the accessory.

All men's umbrellas have a large dome, which is very convenient, as it reliably protects not only from rain, but also from wind.

More recently, designers have presented to the attention of society the original model of an umbrella - a double-dome or double umbrella.

The dome of such an accessory is visually bifurcated, but is attached to one cane. This model is ideal for couples in love walking in the rain.

All umbrellas can be classified according to two main criteria:

Depending on appearance:

• collapsible (take up little space, but are less reliable, since fasteners in places of fastening can wear out and break faster);

• canes (oversized, which is not always convenient, but more practical to use, and also give the image sophistication and aristocracy).

Depending on the mechanism:

• mechanical (the dome opens and closes manually);

• semi-automatic devices (there is a special button on the cane, when pressed, the dome opens, but such an umbrella closes only manually);

• automatic machines (unlike semi-automatic machines, automatic models install more reliable and fast-acting mechanisms);

• full or double automatic machines (the opening and closing of the umbrella occurs automatically by pressing special buttons on the cane).

Today, an umbrella has become such an everyday and indispensable attribute of every person’s life that an incredibly huge selection of different models is offered to consumers in stores. In addition to the most convenient and suitable design of the umbrella, the buyer can still choose the product by color, size and even the materials used to make it.

A good and high-quality accessory should be light, but at the same time remain strong enough. The weight of the product is affected by the materials from which the knitting needles and the cane itself are made. Since modern science has stepped far forward, in our time, for the manufacture of both men's and women's umbrellas, special types of materials are used that are light in weight. Ideally, the weight of an umbrella should not exceed 250-300 grams.

If we talk about the dimensions of this accessory, it immediately becomes clear that models for men are more voluminous than women's umbrellas. Having studied the technical characteristics of men's umbrellas from various manufacturers of this accessory, we can conclude that the umbrella cane can be in the range from 18 centimeters to 1 meter.But the diameter of the dome on average varies in the range of 1-1.3 meters.

For men's umbrellas, classic colors will be characteristic - these are black, dark blue, dark gray and brown.

For those who do not like the monochromatic type of accessories, checkered or striped umbrellas are offered.

Recently, products with animalistic patterns or small prints that do not stand out from the general background have become in high demand.

First of all, a good and reliable umbrella should be practical and functional. These two criteria directly depend on the materials used. Let's consider in more detail:

Materials used for sewing the dome:

• nylon with water-repellent impregnation;

• polyester, characterized by a high operational life;

• vinyl (often used for the production of original umbrellas with transparent domes);

• pongee based on cotton or silk;

• satin (used in production by leading world-famous brands).

Materials used for the manufacture of spokes and steel structures of the umbrella:

• duralumin (rather flexible and not very strong material);

• steel alloys;

• fiberglass

(characterized by high strength and flexibility, the spokes do not break even with strong gusts of wind).

Recently, more and more people are turning their attention to high-quality and stylish things from the world's leading brands. The peculiarity of branded items is not only in their exclusivity, but also in quality. Such companies are very concerned about their reputation and try to keep the brand at a decent level.

Of course, not all world brands are so attentive and respectful to their customers, there are those who, having known fame, gradually reduce the level of quality of their products for the sake of the quantity of manufactured products. Therefore, when choosing branded items, it is better to give priority to those companies that often specialize in the manufacture and sale of one or two types of goods.

If you need a stylish, high-quality and functional men's umbrella, then you should look at the products of brands such as Zest, Fare, GF Ferre, Doppler, Blunt, Pasotti, Moschino, Juy de Jean, Gaultier, Parasol, Three Elephants and others.
