Are they a decent value? If not, where in NYC would you suggest I do some umbrella shopping? Thanks.

Barney's umbrellas are made by Talarico in Naples. Very, very good stuff.

I wonder if they will be included in the one day sale?

The best deals on umbrellas I've seen are probably Papworth's one-piece Briggs (Factory seconds) at 60 quids. They are much better than BB's.

Curious as to where Papworth's is?
