The Fulton Titan-1 Umbrella has been engineered to avoid flipping inside out during a rainy day that's accompanied by parasol ravaging, gale-force winds. As the official umbrella supplier for the Royal Family, the company's entire line-up of wet weather products are created with the intention of making that drizzly day commute a little less of a drag.
This particular rain-repelling model has been tested in a wind tunnel to withstand breezes of up to 78mph without turning in on itself and leaving its owner sopping wet and extremely irritated. Every detail has been fine-tuned for the ultimate in rain protection, from its oversize canopy to its gel-filled handle that molds to the hand of whomever is holding it. This black and silver-checkered parasol is strong without being cumbersome and is made from lightweight, non-conductive (electrocution-proof) fibreglass fit for a Queen -- literally.
