The SOAKED Big Sur Umbrella combines a rich green canopy with the practical features needed for everyday British weather. Smart, understated and easy to carry, it is a dependable compact umbrella for commuting, travelling, countryside walks and days when the forecast cannot quite make up its mind.

Designed in rainy Manchester, Big Sur has a wind-resistant vented canopy supported by ten flexible fibreglass ribs. The frame is designed to adapt and flex when caught in stronger gusts, rather than snapping as more rigid umbrella frames can.

The canopy is made from 100% recycled RPET fabric, giving discarded plastic bottles a useful second life. It is also quick-drying and PFC-free, helping it dry more quickly after a downpour without the use of unwanted “forever chemicals”.

An automatic open and close button makes the umbrella easy to operate with one hand. It is particularly useful when stepping out of the car, carrying shopping or trying to stay dry during a busy commute.

Big Sur opens to a generous 98cm diameter, providing reliable coverage without feeling oversized. Once folded, it measures a compact 29 x 6cm, making it easy to keep inside a handbag, backpack, work bag or suitcase.

The coordinating drawstring sleeve is designed to contain excess moisture after use, helping to prevent water from reaching the other items in your bag. The canopy also provides UPF 50+ sun protection, making this a practical year-round umbrella for both rainy and brighter days.

With its versatile green finish, recycled canopy and durable construction, Big Sur is a more considered alternative to the disposable umbrellas that so often need replacing.
