Easy to carry, X1 series

The ultra-compact and lightweight X1 series uses glass fiber for the ribs, making it lightweight yet highly flexible and resistant to strong winds. I tried using a small umbrella to lighten my luggage, but it bent immediately due to the strong wind! And, it is one that solves such a problem. The diameter when opened is 94 cm, which is a sufficient size, but it can be stored in a compact size because of the handle divided into 4 stages. When stored in the case, it is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. Furthermore, the lightness of 285g including the case is also attractive. It opens and closes nicely, and can be opened smartly even in sudden rain. .

In addition, the case made of the same fabric as the main body is also hateful. In addition to the normal soft cover, it has a double light waterproof outer case, so even if you put the used umbrella on, the surroundings will not get wet. The outer case also comes with a holder, so you can choose how to carry it by hanging it on a bag or hanging it on a belt. Since it can be carried compactly at any time, it is also a great gift for women who often carry small bags and those who like traveling.

The water repellent finish of the fabric uses an eco-friendly PFC-free water repellent developed by a long-established Swiss fabric manufacturer. PFC means a chemical substance that affects environmental pollution, a perfluorinated compound. In recent years, from the viewpoint of environmental protection, PFC-free efforts that do not use PFC have spread, and the coating agents used are ducks and It is said that it is a coating agent that makes the best use of this excellent mechanism, inspired by the fact that waterfowl such as swan secrete oil that makes their wings water repellent.

Speaking of folding umbrellas, Knirps

In Europe, Knirps means "folding umbrella", just as staplers are called staplers and adhesive tapes are called cellophane tapes. The first folding umbrella in the world was born in 1928. Knirps was the first in the world to commercialize what Hans Haupt of Germany devised as an "umbrella that fits in a pocket." Since then, it has been loved by many people for a long time and continues to run as a leading manufacturer of folding umbrellas.

Especially in my home country of Germany, when I look up "folding umbrella" in a dictionary, it is written as "Knirps". Folding umbrellas produced by Knirps have attracted many people with high quality, and even after many years since their birth, they continue to run as the top manufacturer of folding umbrellas. In addition to its excellent functionality, it has also received high praise in terms of design, and the "X1 X-One" series won the "ISDA Award" in 2004 and the Good Design Award in 2005. There is a secret that has been loved by people all over the world for a long time in the sincere attitude of pursuing not only practicality but also beauty of appearance.
