Blunt: More Than An Umbrella

June 9 2023

Working Style is proud to stock the renowned umbrella brand, Blunt. The decision to carry Blunt umbrellas is rooted in their exceptional craftsmanship and unrivalled durability. Blunt has established itself as a leader in the industry by reimagining the traditional umbrella design and introducing innovative features that ensure superior performance. This commitment to quality aligns perfectly with Working Style's dedication to offering premium products that not only exude style but also stand the test of time.



MORE THAN JUST AN UMBRELLA

Blunt have evolved a very traditional product by combining superior engineering with beautiful design, giving us the Blunt Umbrella. Envisioned in London, founded in Warkworth, designed in Auckland, and now available to the world.

With a unique patented and trademarked Blunt shape, the Blunt umbrella is the only umbrella on the market with a fully tensioned canopy for unparalleled performance. Ultimately, they have taken an everyday object of frustration and turned it into an unforgettable experience.



TESTED TO EXTREMES

Blunt believes style shouldn’t come at the cost of performance, which is why they have made the strongest, most aerodynamic and protective umbrella on the market. Blunt Umbrellas have been wind tunnel tested to a Category 1 Hurricane (115km/h). This was measured and evaluated by professionals in the southern hemisphere's most powerful wind tunnel.

Strength comes from simplicity in design. Blunt use materials smarter by exploiting their mechanical property potential, making every component do at least two jobs. Not only does this give extra strength to the umbrella, but also ensures it links back to their purpose of making the ordinary extraordinary.

The patented Blunt tips open like miniature umbrellas within custom pockets at the canopy edge, performing multiple purposes to make the Blunt Umbrella what it is. They transfer the radial force evenly into the canopy, creating a superior structure and aerodynamic surface for ultimate performance. The Blunt tips reinforce the umbrella in a traditional area of weakness by eliminating the point loading at the rib end where umbrellas typically fail.



ICONIC STYLE

A Blunt umbrella is as much a fashion accessory as a high performing product. With our unique patented style, shape and a pop of colour, you will always stand out no matter the weather - turning heads while keeping yours dry.
