I have just unwrapped my beautiful Fox umbrella. I first obtained one of these in the 1970's when I was a student in London. I was at Waterloo station in a downpour and headed for the Lost Property Office where I found a lovely Fox umbrella. I was not aware of its manufacturer at the time and I think I paid 50p for it. It lasted me for years and now I have its replacement. Thank you Sir Gordon Bennett!

Meet the Maker: Fox Umbrellas

Since 1868, during Queen Victoria's reign, Fox Umbrellas has handcrafted the world's finest umbrellas from their workshop, now in Croydon. Thomas Fox's original vision continues through meticulous craftsmanship, using premium materials including their iconic natural bark handles in various shapes and designs. Each umbrella doubles as a walking stick thanks to these robust handles, combining elegance with practicality. Fox Umbrellas pioneered the use of nylon umbrella covers in 1946, displaying them at the Victoria & Albert Museum's 'Britain Can Make It' exhibition. Their clientele reads like a who's who of elegance: the English and Japanese Royal families, President John F. Kennedy, and countless distinguished establishments from Alfred Dunhill to Ralph Lauren worldwide. Famous for appearing in films and television - from James Bond to Atomic Blonde - Fox Umbrellas represents 150 years of uncompromising British manufacturing excellence. Every umbrella is made to order, ensuring bespoke quality and attention to detail that has made Fox the choice of discerning individuals for over a century.
