Stick Umbrellas: The Proven Choice for Rainy Days

To stay dry and cheerful when it rains, we need an umbrella. There are different types, each with specific features. The most commonly used type is the so-called stick umbrella. Stick umbrellas are characterized by a long shaft that provides high stability. They are relatively large, so you should have a suitable place to store them – ideally, an umbrella hook. You can find out everything else you need to know in this category. Just keep reading.

The Right Stick Umbrella for Everyone – Available at bags.co.uk

We want you to find an umbrella that you enjoy using in your everyday life. That’s why you’ll find a wide range of stick umbrellas at bags.co.uk, including stick umbrellas for men and women.
The main difference between the various models is, of course, their design, but there are also some distinctions regarding size, price, and craftsmanship.

Stick Umbrellas for Men

Most umbrellas are unisex and can be used by anyone. However, there are also gender-specific versions, including stick umbrellas for men. Classic men’s umbrellas feature a straight or slightly curved handle in neutral colors. They are generally a bit larger and more robust than women’s umbrellas.
Overall, they tend to have a simpler and more understated appearance. Ultimately, the design comes down to personal preference. Some men prefer women’s umbrellas because they are often lighter and easier to handle. On the other hand, some women like men’s umbrellas for their sturdier design.

Tip: When it comes to diameter, always consider how many people the stick umbrella is intended for. For one person, a diameter of 100 centimeters is sufficient. Couples should opt for an umbrella with a diameter of 110 to 120 centimeters. If the umbrella is meant for an adult with several children, a minimum diameter of 130 centimeters is recommended.

Stick Umbrellas for Women

Stick umbrellas for women don’t necessarily differ much in appearance from those for men. In fact, many designs are used by both genders. What stands out, however, is that stick umbrellas for women are often lighter and easier to handle. This is due to their ergonomic and slender handles. The size varies, but women’s umbrellas tend to be slightly smaller than men’s models – although many come in the same dimensions.

Stick Umbrellas for Children

Umbrellas for children don’t differ greatly from adult versions. They are typically smaller and often feature playful, child-friendly designs. However, there are also children’s umbrellas without bright colors or cartoon prints that are almost indistinguishable from adult umbrellas. The exception are umbrellas specifically designed for young children in preschool or elementary school—they are much smaller and almost always feature colorful or fun motifs.

Automatic or Manual – Both Versions Have Their Advantages

Regardless of the umbrella type, a basic distinction is made between automatic and manual models. Manual umbrellas are opened and closed by hand using a special mechanism. This requires a bit more effort but increases durability. Automatic umbrellas, on the other hand, can be opened and closed at the push of a button. They are much easier to handle but tend to wear out faster. At bags.co.uk, we offer both types. Choose a stick umbrella that best suits your needs.

In Extreme Weather Conditions, Even an Umbrella Can’t Help

A high-quality stick umbrella can withstand a lot. When used properly, it can even handle strong winds. However, there are limits: if you’re facing a severe storm – whether hail, rain, or snow – it’s best to stay indoors. An umbrella won’t be of much help in such conditions. In the worst case, it may break within minutes and become unusable.

Frequently Asked Questions About Stick Umbrellas

What Are Stick Umbrellas and How Do They Differ From Other Types?

Stick umbrellas are the most commonly used type of umbrella. They feature a long shaft—hence the name “stick umbrella.” Their biggest advantage is their exceptional stability. However, they are larger and harder to store. The main characteristics of high-quality stick umbrellas for men and women include:

  • Wide coverage
  • High-quality canopy material
  • Long shaft
  • Sturdy frame
  • Solid construction

All umbrellas in our collection meet these standards, so all you need to do is choose a design you like. We offer a variety of colors and stylish patterns to suit every taste.

What Sizes of Stick Umbrellas Are Available?

Stick umbrellas are generally larger than other types. Still, you should pay attention to size when buying—especially if more than one person will be using the umbrella. The key factor is the diameter. A diameter of around 100 centimeters is the standard size for one person. For two people, it should be 10 to 20 centimeters larger.

How Do Automatic and Manual Stick Umbrellas Differ?

The main difference between automatic and manual umbrellas lies in the opening and closing mechanism. With a manual stick umbrella, you open it by sliding a mechanism upward by hand. This step is eliminated with automatic umbrellas—you simply press a button to open or close them. This makes handling easier and saves time, though automatic models tend to wear out faster.
