Product details of Knirps Floyd Folding Umbrella (High UV Protection!)
BE DIFFERENT.
What better way to capture the essence of something truly unique than with the wildly striped and colorful Zebra. The Zebra is all about individuality... and with a few strokes of brilliant color, the Floyd Zebra can’t be missed. Proud and powerful, the Zebra leads the pack. 
Like Floyd, the Zebra sets - rather than follows - the trends. Floyd’s success is based not only on its wonderfully unique style, but on the reputation of the Knirps name and quality. The two go hand in hand and are appreciated by those who love superior function and cutting-edge fashion. We look forward to sharing the fun of Floyd with you.
We dare you to Be Different!
