Survive the next shower in style with one of our pick of the best umbrellas in Britain.
We’d love to open this round-up by talking about how the weather is getting worse, and how you’re really going to need a decent brolly.
But ‘getting worse’ is hardly the right description following simply appalling recent rain and more is forecast.
It’s always thus. British weather insists a key item in any wardrobe is the trusty umbrella; from dog walkers to City suits, the humble brolly plays a daily part in the lives of millions.
And while in some countries – most notably Japan – people tend to buy, use and dispose of umbrellas on a regular basis, we like to have some long-lasting quality in our brollies.
