Soake "inside out" umbrellas are revolutionary in design and function. If you want a stylish beautiful umbrella this is definitely one for you. The spokes we have used are a fibreglass ensuring flexibility, strength and ultimately longevity. The handle is a "c" shape allowing almost hands free operation. The canopy is manafactured from a polyester 190T material offering a very waterproof covering. We always ensure that the canopy is large enough for the job and this umbrella is no exception having a diameter of 105cm and a close length of 82cm enough to keep you covered and dry always. This umbrella is manual opening. This umbrella (when closed) will stand up completely by itself.
