Bright floral rain cover that tucks into your bag
Keep this foldable compact umbrella on hand for rainy days, with a manual open mechanism and a water-resistant polyester canopy measuring 91.5 cm (36 inches) across. When the rain passes, secure it with the built-in ribbon strap and store it in its matching case. The large pink and red Unikko flowers add a bright touch to grey weather.[1,2,3]
Collapsing and stowing the compact umbrella after use
For trips where you need to pack the umbrella away quickly, the canopy closes by pressing the release button on the runner and pulling it down the shaft until fully collapsed. The canopy then folds neatly, secures with its strap, and goes back into its protective case. If the mechanism feels stiff, check that the canopy is not tangled before opening or closing it.[2]
Drying and packing the Unikko Compact Umbrella after rainy days
After a wet outing, open the umbrella fully and let it air dry before packing up. Once dry, fold the canopy, wrap the built-in ribbon strap around it and slip it into the included matching case. Storing it somewhere cool and dry helps keep it ready for the next downpour.[1,2]
Caring for and cleaning your Unikko Compact Umbrella
After a rainy day, the Unikko Compact Umbrella can be cleaned with a soft cloth moistened with plain water. Cleaning products are not recommended, as they may damage the umbrella's waterproof coating. Once dry, the canopy folds and secures with the attached strap before going back in its case.[2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Unikko Compact Umbrella: Choose this if you want a foldable compact umbrella with a bold, oversized floral print in bright pink and reddish-orange tones (Patterned Red). It has a 91.5 cm (36 inches) canopy in 100% recycled polyester with water-resistant properties, an ultra light manual opening mechanism, a plastic handle with wrist strap, and comes with a matching fabric sleeve. Note that care matters: it should be air-dried fully after use, cleaned only with plain water (cleaning products may damage the waterproof coating), and the mechanism may feel stiff if the canopy is tangled before opening or closing.[1,2,3,4] | Pieni Unikko Compact Poppy Umbrella: Choose this if you want a compact folding umbrella with Marimekko's famous Pieni Unikko poppy print, shown here in large-scale two-tone blue florals (also offered in Pink). It is an ultra-light, manual-open design made of recycled polyester that weighs about 169 grams and folds down to roughly 22 centimeters, so it tucks easily into a bag, with a matching fabric sleeve and wrist strap included. Note that it opens manually rather than automatically, and its canopy spans about 32 inches (81.25 centimeters) when open.[5,6,7,8] | Pieni Unikko Compact Poppy Umbrella: Choose this if you want a compact folding umbrella with Marimekko's signature poppy print, shown here as a large-scale two-tone design in indigo and dark blue (also offered in pink). It opens manually to a 32-inch (81.25 cm) diameter canopy in rugged 100% polyester and comes with a matching fabric case and built-in wrist strap. Note that the manual mechanism means no automatic open, so it suits those who prefer a simple, traditional action over push-button convenience.[7,9] |
