Hardwood Umbrella Blackwatch Tartan

Avoid using your umbrella in strong winds or stormy weather as it can damage the metal construction of even the most durable models. Always open downwards. Leave the umbrella canopy open after use and let it dry fully to prevent creases and rust build-up. Once dry, the canopy should be rolled up by first gently freeing any fabric that may have become trapped in the ribs before evening out the fabric using a circular motion. Persistent exposure to heat and sunlight can cause the canopy to fade and lose its elasticity.
