Polyester is more durable than nylon due to additives. Often it uses a fraction of cotton. You can create a bright pattern from multi-colored polyester threads.

Pongee is a synthetic fabric containing Teflon. Umbrellas made of this material are the most durable and moisture resistant. They can be used for several seasons, while the fabric will retain its original color.

An openwork summer umbrella made of satin or silk will look very impressive, and thanks to high-quality natural fabrics it has the proper strength. But these materials are also subject to fading.
