Blunt | Metro Clay Check
Wind-proof and pocket-sized — the auto-open BLUNT Metro in Clay Check with matching sleeve.
$129.99
Description
Wind-proof, everything-proof umbrellas are now at Cove, from the local NZ geniuses at BLUNT.
Compact, convenient and collapsible, the BLUNT Metro is perfect for the urban dweller, busy people in busy places.
With 100cm coverage, the Metro is perfectly sized to give you coverage while not taking up too much street space.
The Metro features an auto-open canopy to easily open with the push of a button and collapses back down to slide neatly into the carry sleeve.
It's also built with a 360° spinning canopy to avoid damaging the core mechanism when knocked on an accident.
At 37.5cm in length, you can whip your BLUNT out of your handbag or briefcase whenever the weather acts up. Comes with a matching coloured sleeve.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the patented Blunt Tips different from a normal umbrella?
Standard umbrella tips are sharp points that catch on things and can turn inside-out in wind. Blunt's patented rounded tips connect the frame in a continuous arc, distributing tension evenly across the canopy — that's what makes it stay strong and open in genuinely bad weather.
Will it hold up in strong wind?
Yes — Blunt umbrellas are built and tested specifically for high winds, with a fully tensioned frame designed to flex and recover rather than turn inside out or snap.
What's the difference between the Classic and the Metro?
The Classic is BLUNT's original full-sized, full-length umbrella — built for maximum coverage on long, wet days. The Metro is a compact, auto-open, collapsible version at just 37.5cm long, designed to fit in a bag or briefcase for everyday city use, with 100cm of coverage.
How should I care for and dry my umbrella?
Let your umbrella air-dry fully open (or as open as your space allows) before folding it away or storing it in its sleeve, so it doesn't stay damp and mildew inside. Avoid forcing it shut while still wet.
