The Hedgehog Umbrella has been created as an ultra-durable accessory that will easily withstand damage and breakage when used in inclement, windy weather. Crafted with a carbon fiber design, the umbrella has a suspension system that is similar to automotive components and is complete with a replaceable canopy to prevent users from needing to ditch the entire unit if damage is incurred. The flexible design of the umbrella will bend instead of breaking against the wind, while the frame will divert airflow to help the unit maintain its shape, even when category 1 hurricane windspeed are observed.
The Hedgehog Umbrella boasts a compact design that can be kept stored in any bag when not in use to ensure it's always on hand when required.
