Vintage umbrellas seduce with their authenticity, retro charm and timeless elegance. Unlike modern models, which often emphasize technology and compactness, vintage-inspired umbrellas focus on solid materials, clean lines and distinctive style. A return to basics that echoes our love of beauty and durability. With Le Parapluie de Cherbourg, these values take on their full meaning through emblematic models that pay homage to the past while incorporating excellent craftsmanship.
The vintage umbrella is more than just a rain accessory, it's a true object of style. Its design is inspired by the models of the past, with meticulous finishing and noble materials. The shape, colors and details recall the elegance of the umbrellas of yesteryear, while blending in perfectly with contemporary outfits.
Vintage-inspired umbrellas are distinguished by their functional simplicity. No complex mechanisms or superfluous gadgets, just a tried-and-tested design that focuses on the essentials: a sturdy frame, a hard-wearing canvas and a comfortable grip. These are umbrellas built to last, offering reliable weather protection with inimitable style.
Trends evolve, but the vintage umbrella remains a sure bet. Its timeless design goes equally well with a classic look or a more modern outfit. It adds a touch of distinction and recalls the refinement of the accessories of yesteryear, while adapting perfectly to today's requirements.
The Parapluie de Cherbourg x Kiplay Vintage model is the fruit of an exclusive partnership between two iconic French companies. On the one hand, Le Parapluie de Cherbourg, a manufacturer renowned for its expertise and excellence in craftsmanship, and on the other, Kiplay Vintage, a specialist in retro-inspired workwear rooted in the heritage of French textiles.
This model reinterprets the spirit of umbrellas from the 40's and 50's, while benefiting from modern, robust construction. It combines the strength of a weatherproof umbrella with the elegance of an accessory in the tradition of vintage style.
Its navy-blue taffeta canvas is reminiscent of the fabrics used for period clothing, while its galvanized steel frame and fiber ribs guarantee unfailing strength. Its solid wood handle and meticulous finishing make it a true tribute to the umbrellas of yesteryear.
For those with a passion for history and exceptional pieces, the collector's models designed for the 50th and 75th anniversaries of the D-Day are part of this same desire to offer umbrellas that tell a story.
Their embroidered canvas and carefully crafted details make them models with strong symbolic value. The vintage umbrella is not just a practical accessory, it becomes an object of memory and transmission, rooted in a tradition of excellence.
