This Blunt Metro umbrella is just the ticket for those classic British unpredictable downpours. It’s got this really clever Radial Tensioning System, which basically means it's built properly to handle a bit of a gust, so you won't be battling it inside out when you're just trying to get to work. The black and white houndstooth pattern is a total winner – proper chic and timeless, so it looks smart whether you're heading to a meeting or just popping out for a coffee on the weekend. And it's compact enough that you can easily stash it in your tote or backpack without it taking up loads of space. Honestly, it's just a really solid, stylish bit of kit for everyday use.
