Official Umbrella aficionados thread
I see. Does anybody here own a Brigg umbrella? Does it have these marks? It's a bit difficult if the company says "this is not faults, these are features, and are present on all our umbrellas". But if someone here can tell me that they have a Brigg, without these marks or wrinkles, it would...- magulv

Official Umbrella aficionados thread
Swaine has now reviewed the images of the fabric, and replied: "I have heard back from the team at the workshop and they have suggested this may have been caused by the way the umbrella was folded when put inside the box. (...) They have said that using an iron on a very low heat to try ironing...- magulv

Official Umbrella aficionados thread
Dear umbrella aficionados. I purchased my first "serious" umbrella in july, a Swaine Thomas Brigg with solid cherry wood stick and navy blue canopy. After eight months of waiting, I finally received the umbrella yesterday. Upon unboxing and opening the canopy, I noticed that the fabric isn't...- magulv

After Swaine dodging this question (as well as the statement about them using Fox frames), claiming they're not to familiar with the likes of Fox and James Smith, I'm bumping this. How many hours/days does it really take to manufacture an umbrella from scratch? Does it really take approximately...- magulv

Also, can anyone please shed some light on why Brigg operates with a 6-8 WEEKS production time ("This product will take between 6-8 weeks to be handcrafted by our specialist craftsmen"), while Fox states 5-7 working DAYS? Are Brigg a much smaller operation, meaning the construct the umbrella...- magulv

Fox's reply: I won’t be drawn into a drawn out debate, but clearly the umbrellas are made in the UK as you can see from the videos. We have been making umbrellas here since 1868. Where the raw materials come from changes depending on where we can source the best components. I personally...- magulv

Official Umbrella aficionados thread
Just for the fun of it, I asked Fox. Like you said, they won't disclose the origin of the frame parts. Wich annoys me. What does that tell you, when they're open about the place of origin of the wood and fabric, but won't disclose the origin of the steel..? I guess it's not England. Wich makes...- magulv

Well, my research tells me they get their frames from Fox. So, Fox and SAB use the same steel frame. Read that in a couple of articles. Haven't asked them directly, though.- magulv

Hi guys! I'm about to place an order for a SAB Thomas Brigg stripped cherry solid stick umbrella. I've narrowed it down to Navy Blue or midnight blue canopy. The problem beeing that they don't have any pictures of the midnight blue fabric. I've emailed back and forth with Swaine for a couple of...- magulv

Shoes: Leather quality explanation needed!
Ah, makes sense. Just to be clear, are you referring to the tanning process now, the dye, or last finish? The brand is Bruno Magli.- magulv

Did Magnanni get better?
Well, isn't it safe to say that goes both ways? You shouldn't disregard a brand completely because of one malfunctioning belt and one pair of shoes that obviously was a manufacturing error. At least not without contacting the brand and see what they have to say about it. I can't speak for the...- magulv

Did Magnanni get better?
Well, I called them good, not great. Furthermore, as I feel like I explained, to me they have great comfort, quality leather, fantastic paint jobs (wich is ofcourse a matter of taste), and good customer service. That is actually possible at the same time as the coloring technique is fragile. But...- magulv

Did Magnanni get better?
Hi guys! New to this forum, so please forgive any steps out of line. To chime in on the topic, I own 7 pairs of Magnanni shoes. Two of them are dyed leather, the rest is hand painted/patinated. Wich leads me to my con with Magnanni, and probably most of hand painted shoes: The leather itself is...- magulv
