Keep it long, treasure it long.

Inspired by nature

The T.220 Building is a member of the collaboration series between Knirps and NUNO, which is designed with inspiration from nature. A design with raindrops and nuts on the branches of a tree makes it look like an architecture when you look at the morphology and composition principle of such a plant, where the tree has branches and leaves from a thick trunk. The pattern created from this perspective makes you feel a strong connection between nature, humans, and animals. The design has a sharp impression while using nature as a motif, and I would like men who usually choose plain patterns such as plain to adopt it. As it is 95% UV cut, it can be used as a sunshade for both sunny and rainy weather.

T.220 series with automatic opening / closing function

Knirps T.220 series with automatic opening and closing function for a comfortable feel. Since it can be easily opened with one hand, it can respond smartly to sudden rain even if your hand is occupied by luggage. In addition, the troublesome folding of the cloth part can be closed quickly with the touch of a button, so storage is easy. In addition to using glass fiber, which is lightweight yet has excellent flexibility, the ribs have improved shaft strength compared to the conventional series, and have a structure that is more wind resistant. In addition, the error at the joint of the shaft joints has been reduced, and operability has improved. The storage bag can be easily stored by opening the zipper at the end of use, and you can pull the umbrella quickly by putting your finger on the hook attached to the tip. It is slim with a diameter of 6 cm when stored, but it has a diameter of about 98 cm when opened, so it is hard to get wet even on days with a lot of luggage or when going out with a backpack.

The water repellent finish of the fabric uses an eco-friendly PFC-free water repellent developed by a long-established Swiss fabric manufacturer. PFC means a chemical substance that affects environmental pollution, a perfluorinated compound. In recent years, from the viewpoint of environmental protection, PFC-free efforts that do not use PFC have spread, and the coating agents used are ducks and It is said that it is a coating agent that makes the best use of this excellent mechanism, inspired by the fact that waterfowl such as swan secrete oil that makes their wings water repellent.

The T.220 series has been carefully considered for safety. A safety structure "safety system" is adopted to prevent the shaft from unexpectedly popping out, and even if you stop pushing the shaft back by hand and release the hand, the shaft will not return to its original length. The one-touch folding umbrella T.220 Building is a durable and solid structure that can be a reliable ally even in situations where you cannot carry a long umbrella, such as when traveling or on a business trip. Choose it as a gift for those who like traveling, as a gift for families who always use vinyl umbrellas, or as a gift.

Speaking of folding umbrellas, Knirps

In Europe, Knirps means "folding umbrella", just as staplers are called staplers and adhesive tapes are called cellophane tapes. The world's first folding umbrella was born in 1928. Knirps was the first in the world to commercialize what Hans Haupt of Germany devised as an "umbrella that fits in a pocket". Since then, it has been loved by many people for a long time and continues to run as a leading manufacturer of folding umbrellas.

Especially in my home country of Germany, when I look up "folding umbrella" in a dictionary, it is written as "Knirps" so that it permeates people's lives. Folding umbrellas produced by Knirps have attracted many people with high quality, and even after many years since their birth, they continue to run as the top manufacturer of folding umbrellas. In addition to its excellent functionality, it has also received high praise in terms of design, and the "X1 X-One" series won the "ISDA Award" in 2004 and the Good Design Award in 2005. There is a secret that has been loved by people all over the world for a long time in the sincere attitude of pursuing not only practicality but also beauty of appearance.

In recent years, we have been promoting sustainable initiatives as the top brand of umbrellas, such as a long-term warranty of 5 years and the use of environmentally friendly coating agents.
