    How do I fold a straight umbrella ?

    In this video tutorial, you will learn how to close and, above all, how to properly fold your straight umbrella.
    It's a question that's often asked in our store, and here's how we demonstrate it to our customers.

    Fermez votre parapluie droit jusqu’au clic

    Then make your 8 folds stand out to the outside.

    Place your left hand on top of the umbrella and your right hand on the handle.

    Gently turn your umbrella clockwise with your right hand while your left hand moves down from the top to the bottom of the umbrella, ensuring that the fastener is correctly positioned with the male side of the snap facing outwards.

    Finally, clip on the snap.

    And here's your straight umbrella is properly closed!
