City Walking Umbrellas

City walking umbrellas are probably the best-known model of umbrella due to its crook handle. Also known as a curved handle or stick umbrella, city walking umbrellas can be made in wood or fibreglass and include a slick black silicon handle.

Favoured by urban professionals including property developers and financial services, the city walker umbrella is the modern equivalent of the traditional wood walker. Its practical size makes it a useful companion in a crowded urban environment making it the perfect choice for city pavements.

For a contemporary city walking variant, with fibreglass ribs, a soft-feel curved handle and recessed automatic open, printed in the UK with a typical three-week turnaround, see our Modern City Walker Umbrella.

City walking umbrellas are a durable and practical choice, boasting premium gun metal quality fittings as well as great branding potential. The eight panels of the umbrella can be printed inside and out with panels that are carefully matched to ensure artwork appears continuous over the whole umbrella. Great for large photo prints or maps on umbrellas.

The handle ring can be engraved on this model for a subtle hint of branding as well as the inclusion of branded woven labels or printed labels that can be sewn in on the inside or outside of the panels. If you’re selling your umbrella, then retail tags can be included at the point of construction either supplied by your or printed by us.
