Blunt Umbrellas FAQs
Which is the most durable umbrella for high winds and heavy rain?
The most durable umbrella for high winds and heavy rain is the Blunt Umbrella, thanks to its clever design tested to withstand winds up to 72mph. Its radial tensioning system keeps the canopy stable, while fibreglass ribs resist bending or snapping. Unlike flimsy brollies that give up at the first gust, this one’s built to last. It even comes with a global two-year warranty for peace of mind. A smarter buy-it-for-life option, if we may say so. Find out how we research durable products.
How do I care for and maintain my Blunt Umbrella?
To care for and maintain your Blunt Umbrella, always dry it fully open after use - this helps fend off rust and musty smells. Wipe away any mud or dirt with a damp cloth and never force it if it catches when opening. Keep it stored in its sleeve in a dry place, and it’ll serve you well for years (no soggy surprises on the school run). Visit our Product Care & Repair hub for more handy tips.
Can I take a Blunt Umbrella in my hand luggage on a plane?
Yes, you can take a Blunt Umbrella in your hand luggage on a plane. Most airlines allow folding brollies in carry-on bags, but if you’re packing a full-size one, check with your airline first to be safe. All Blunt Umbrellas are tip-free and designed with safety in mind, so they’re usually no bother at security. Just don’t try to wedge it into the overhead bin like a rogue baguette.
What makes Blunt Umbrellas different from regular ones?
What makes Blunt Umbrellas different is their patented design that stands up to serious weather. The radial tensioning system spreads wind pressure evenly, so the canopy stays put and doesn’t crumple. Reinforced fibreglass ribs and durable fabrics mean they won’t give up mid-storm. Plus, they’re made to be repaired, not binned, and come with a two-year warranty. It’s the brolly equivalent of sturdy boots over flimsy flip-flops.
Are Blunt Umbrellas easy to repair if something breaks?
Yes, Blunt Umbrellas are easy to repair if something breaks. Their modular build means you can swap out parts like ribs or canopy tips without replacing the whole thing. Blunt offers a repair service and spare parts, helping you keep your umbrella in action for years to come. It’s proper old-school thinking - mend it, don’t bin it.

A responsibly-made brolly you won’t need to replace every rainy Tuesday.
