How to care for your umbrella
Daily maintenance method
① Wash away dirt on the surface little by little with a small amount of hot water of about 38 to 40 degrees.
② Apply diluted neutral detergent to a towel or sponge and gently tap it on the umbrella fabric to remove dirt.
*Rubbing too hard may lead to deterioration of the fabric.
③ Pour hot water over again and rinse off the detergent little by little.
④ Dry in the shade in a well-ventilated place.
Steps to restore water repellency
If there is any fluororesin left in the umbrella fabric, the water repellency will be restored just by applying heat.
① Spread out the umbrella to be cleaned, rub the surface to remove dirt, and dry thoroughly in the shade. * Dirt will be easier to remove if you use warm water of about 40 degrees.
② Method using a hair dryer
1. Unfold the umbrella and dry it in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight.
2. Open the umbrella, hold it about 3cm to 5cm away from the fabric, and blow hot air with a hair dryer. (Estimated time: 30-40 minutes *Please do not approach for a long time)
3. Move the hair dryer slowly and carefully apply warm air to the creases between the bones, the tips of the bones, and the edges of the fabric.
③ Method using an iron
1. Unfold the umbrella and dry it in the shade, avoiding direct sunlight.
2. Lightly dry at medium temperature (approximately 3 to 4 minutes)
Leaving it on for a long time or applying too much pressure will damage the fibers.
*Please refrain from using the steam function as the fabric will absorb moisture.

Points to remember when handling umbrellas
・When opening the umbrella, remove the band and shake it well to loosen the fabric before opening it.
- When storing a folding umbrella in an umbrella bag, it will be easier to store it by rotating it in the direction of the winding of the umbrella itself.
Precautions for use
・If you try to force the umbrella to open when it is first used, if the fabric is not loosened, it may cause breakage or malfunction.
・After getting wet in the rain, dry it in a shaded area with good ventilation.
・Although the umbrella is water-repellent, water may seep out during heavy rain of 20mm or more.
・Avoid using on rainy and windy days.
-The wood and bamboo materials of the handle are natural materials, so there may be individual differences. Please enjoy each texture as it is.
