So I don’t live in a hurricane area, but average storms got the best of my two umbrellas that I thought would withstand the wind. One samsonite, one Taiwanese brand (rainbow) that had advertised it as storm resistant. It is true that both would “pop out” in case of strong winds, which is to prevent the immediate break.

Still, facing the wind (a sudden burst as I was walking past a tall building) has bent the ribs irremediably.

Any suggestions based on actual experience?

Thank you

    I am relatively happy with my Davek umbrellas. The micro umbrellas are incredibly small (pocket sized) and the self folding mainstay was very solid (until stolen on a trip).
