No, our stick umbrellas shouldn’t blow inside out. However, there is the exception of our collapsible Metro model which may flip inside out in certain winds but it has been designed so that if it does, it can be easily flipped back without damaging the structure!

Our iconic shape is all thanks to the patented technology of our Blunt™ tips. They open like miniature umbrellas within custom pockets at the canopy edge, performing multiple purposes to make the Blunt™ Umbrella what it is. To learn more about our design see here.

BLUNT Umbrellas are designed in NZ and manufactured near Xiamen in China. Given the expertise and skill needed to produce BLUNT Umbrellas (they are still hand stitched unlike ordinary umbrellas) we use the best experts to manufacture and produce our umbrellas.
We have been with our supply partners for over 12 years now and they have helped BLUNT to prosper in the face of many challenges' small businesses face. BLUNT would not be here today if it weren’t for them.

Our Limited edition models, Exec, Sport and Classic Seasonal models all come with carry sleeves. Our collapsible Metro model also comes with a matching cover sleeve to keep protected while in your bag. Our core range Coupe and Classic models do not come with carry sleeves.

Our Metro umbrella is built with a 360° spinning canopy to avoid damaging the core mechanism when knocked on an accident.
