Sturdy Storm-Proof Umbrellas

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Stormy Weather is No Match for the Senz Storm Umbrella

— January 20, 2014 — Lifestyle
It has been 3,000 years since the umbrella has been improved or changed but the makers of Senz Storm Umbrella have it with getting caught in the rain. You shouldn’t be wet when you use an umbrella, yet it still happens. The stormy weather takes our little umbrellas for an unpleasant joyride, and leaves us cold, miserable and so uncomfortable.

The Senz Storm Umbrella is designed unlike the traditional umbrella except for a couple of features. The unique asymmetrical style protects against wind speeds of up to 100 km per hour. Because of its structure, it won’t flip inside out during the storm, or limit your visibility. Wind and rain just roll over the canopy to the back instead of directly on top of it. This lightweight umbrella may look very different than what you’re used to carrying around, but it’s going to keep you nice and dry during for the violent weather.
