Conquer your commute
Umbrellas should keep you dry, but when you’re faced with howling wind, sideways rain, and having to navigate through crowded city streets, they often reach their limits. Want proof? Just glance at a street bin on a wet and windy day – we guarantee you’ll spot at least one broken brolly. That’s why the BLUNT Metro was such a revelation to us. Its rounded tips and spinning, fully tensioned canopy won’t snag on street furniture or fellow commuters. With 100 cm coverage it is the perfect size to provide plenty of protection without taking up too much space on the streets. Simply push a button and the canopy auto-opens and collapses, and it stows neatly into a carry sleeve. Even better, it is wind-tested up to 55mph, so you know that even on a blustery day the Metro will keep you dry.

Sustainability through longevity - BLUNT Umbrellas are built for life. Resisting the throw-away is part of the fabric and this is reflected in everything, from the umbrellas to the packaging.
BLUNT Umbrellas evolved a very traditional product by combining superior engineering with beautiful design.
With unique patented and trademarked Blunt™ shape, the BLUNT umbrella is the only umbrella on the market with a fully tensioned canopy for unparalleled performance. Ultimately, they have taken an everyday object of frustration and turned it into an unforgettable experience.
- Drying your Blunt - Make sure to dry your Blunt completely to avoid any mildew or water stains forming. The best way to dry your umbrella is to leave it fully open, otherwise you can leave this standing up with the canopy tie released.
- BLUNT + UV - All BLUNT umbrellas offer UV protection (this varies per colour). Please keep in mind that UV rays can be reflected off surfaces in different environments.
- Storing your Blunt - To maximise the life of your Blunt, make sure to store your umbrella in it’s sleeve. This helps to protect it from any sun damage or wear and tear.
- Cleaning your Blunt - When cleaning your canopy, make sure to use a clean cloth and warm water to clear any marks. Avoid using any chemical detergents and bristle brushes. BLUNT Umbrellas are not machine washable.
- Opening your Blunt - To avoid any injuries, protect your surroundings and increase the longevity of your Blunt, make sure to always open it upwards.
