A luxurious vented canopy, responsibly sourced hardwood pole and the highest-grade solution-dyed acrylic outdoor canvas (with the ultimate fade resistance) separates our Luxury Umbrella from the rest.

We recommend taking some time to set your umbrella up properly. Check out our instructions for use.
To make things super simple to set up, you may be interested in our sand anchor, which simply screws into the sand.

If you’ve used your umbrella, give it a good shake and make sure it’s completely dry before popping it into its carry bag. While our canopies are both water-resistant and waterproof, we recommend allowing your umbrella to dry out before storing it to avoid any mould. Storing it in between uses will extend its life and minimise wear and tear, giving you the best quality shade for longer.
Absolutely - you can use our beach umbrellas at home.
Our beach umbrellas can be secured on solid surfaces or at home for some temporary backyard or patio shade.
For freestanding umbrellas, we recommend using the 14kg or 25kg Basil Base (go heavier if more exposed). You can check out our bases here.
We recommend putting them away when not in use to keep them in good condition for longer. If you want something for 24/7 outdoor use, we would suggest our Jardin garden & patio umbrella collection.
