For you gents with the pretty umbrellas, how well do they hold up to wind? (like Seattle wind)
what brand is the far right? It looks much slimmer than the other two..

This may sound like blasphemy but aren't the nice umbrellas also very heavy? I toted a friend's Brigg for a while and between that and my bag with laptop, papers, camera, my shoulders were in quite a bit of pain at the end of the day.

One of the first times I carried my Brigg, it was in a terrible, windy storm. The guy in front of me had his umbrella turn inside out, like in a cartoon, and he had to carry it over his head like a teacup saucer. First time I'd seen it happen in real life. My Brigg was fine, though during the particularly strong gusts, I was worried the wind might wrench it from my hands. If extremely high winds are a concern, a ventilated umbrella might be more manageable.
