Swaine Adeney Brigg of London has been selling umbrellas since 1750,and got its royal warrant from Queen Victoria in 1893. The Brigg brolly achieved international fame when wielded by John Steed in The Avengers TV series. But they're not that cheap so what makes them different from more ordinary umberellas?
WTF? his profession is "Gentleman"?

Truly excellent/ elegant high quality umbrellas! I own a Brigg bark chestnut with silk, a cotton Brigg with whangee handle, a Brigg ash with nylon, Brigg Prince of Wales with silk, and my favorite- their top of the line gents silver handle bespoke umbrella with silk and silver tips. I am amazed how sturdy and durable they are. Other less quality umbrellas fold and break vs. Brigg. 6 years I have owned mine and not an issue!! It's like owning a fine jewelry, and will be an heirloom! Great Video!!

You wouldn't want to leave it on the bus but then I guess you probably wouldn't be travelling the bus, if you had one.
