Arrivé très rapidement, très contente.
Super.
Très bien et de très bonne qualité !
un peu lourd mais c'est normal avec autant de baleines. Très bonne qualité je ne suis pas déçu. Merci.
Bien...
Je croyais qu'il s'ouvrait et se fermait automatiquement, mais en fait il se ferme manuellement. J'avais mal lu la description.
assez lourd c'est bien, les baleines sont beaucoup courbées donc ça couvre pas une très grande surface. Mais ça correspond à la photo
c’est pas mal, il a vraiment beaucoup de baleines j'aime beaucoup
Pas encore reçu, je suis pressé
bien
Le parapluie est solide et vraiment bien, il protège bien contre la pluie et les grosses rafales de vent, donc c’est top. Par contre, il est un peu plus lourd qu’un parapluie classique.
Comme sur les photos, il y a moins de baleines et le tissu est assez fin.
ça vaut le prix
il est assez lourd quand meme mais visuellement il a l’air solide. je testerai quand il pleuvra, pour l’instant ça a l’air bien 👍
Le produit est pas mal, ça fait bien le job. J’aime bien, franchement.
Clairement assez lourd. Le parapluie du patron, style chauffeur ou garde du corps 😂
plutôt léger, la longueur est nickel donc c’est sympa. par contre c’est pas vraiment fait pour servir de parasol (logique c'est un parapluie). je l’ai pas encore utilisé donc je sais pas encore si ça protège bien de la pluie. la poignée fait un peu de bruit, mais elle se détache pas.
good
bardzo dobry. Polecam.
Le parapluie est solide et franchement il est bien.
Frequently asked questions
What size is considered a large umbrella?
There is no universal diameter at which an umbrella officially becomes large. Open canopy diameter or span is the most useful measurement for comparing designs. Actual dimensions therefore provide a better indication of coverage than the product category name alone.
What size umbrella is suitable for two people?
Choose a canopy wide enough to cover both users without requiring them to walk uncomfortably close together. There is no single ideal diameter for everyone, as body size, height and weather conditions affect comfort. Compare the actual open dimensions of each model.
What is the difference between a large umbrella and a long umbrella?
Large umbrella primarily refers to canopy span and the amount of covered space. Long umbrella describes a full-length format with a non-collapsible shaft. An umbrella can therefore be both long and large, but one characteristic does not automatically imply the other.
Are large umbrellas more affected by wind?
A broader canopy can experience greater wind loading because it presents a larger surface to gusts. How the umbrella responds also depends on its ribs, shaft, canopy and overall frame construction, so size alone does not determine its behaviour in windy conditions.
Is a large umbrella practical for everyday use?
Yes, if extra coverage matters more to you than minimum carrying size. It can work particularly well when carried by hand, kept in a car or stored at your destination. If you rely heavily on compact bags and frequent public transport, a smaller format may be easier to manage.
What should I consider before buying a large umbrella?
Start by comparing open canopy diameter. Then consider weight, overall length, rib construction, shaft, handle and opening mechanism. If two people will regularly share the umbrella, pay particular attention to actual canopy span rather than relying on the word large alone.

Large umbrellas when extra coverage matters
A large umbrella prioritises the amount of protected space beneath the canopy. Increased diameter extends coverage beyond the immediate area above your head, helping to shelter shoulders, outerwear, bags and other belongings more effectively.
This additional space can be particularly welcome when rain is falling at an angle or when you are carrying something you would prefer to keep dry. The trade-off is straightforward: a larger canopy generally requires more space to carry than a design focused primarily on compact storage.
What size should a large umbrella be?
There is no single diameter that universally defines a large umbrella. Compare the stated open canopy measurements rather than relying on the overall length of the product. Two umbrellas of similar closed length can provide quite different amounts of coverage when opened.
The ideal dimensions also depend on how you intend to use it. One person may simply want more protection around the shoulders and belongings, while anyone regularly sharing an umbrella will usually benefit from a considerably broader canopy.
Can a large umbrella cover two people?
Some designs provide enough room for two people to walk beneath the same canopy, but the word large alone does not guarantee this. Check the actual open dimensions and consider the users' height, how closely they will walk together and the weather conditions.
For a traditional non-collapsible profile, explore our long umbrellas. The two categories can overlap, but long refers primarily to construction and overall format, whereas large describes the amount of canopy space.
Why frame design matters more as the canopy grows
A larger surface changes the forces acting on the umbrella. Rib construction, shaft design, handle and overall balance therefore deserve careful consideration alongside canopy diameter. Weight can also become more noticeable during longer walks.
The right model balances these different characteristics rather than pursuing size alone. At the opposite end of the spectrum, our pocket umbrellas are designed around minimum packed dimensions and maximum portability.
Generous dimensions with a refined appearance
A broad canopy does not have to look cumbersome. Balanced proportions, clean lines and considered finishing can give a large umbrella an elegant presence despite its increased dimensions.
Our premium large umbrellas are selected with this relationship between space, handling and appearance in mind, offering greater coverage without treating size as the only measure of quality.
