  • OUR ROOTS

    Rooted in a family tradition of leather goods and umbrella repair for prestigious French maisons, H2O Parapluies was born from a return to its Norman origins. After opening an umbrella repair shop in Paris, founders Martine and Claude Collard moved to Crépon, in Calvados—Mrs. Collard’s birthplace—to establish their artisanal workshop.

    Today, the H2O Parapluies workshop passionately crafts all types of umbrellas: from large umbrellas to traditional cane umbrellas, practical mini umbrellas, wind-resistant anti-inversion umbrellas, and a wide range of elegant folding umbrellas for both men and women.

  • Our engagements

    Our workshop was founded with the desire to offer a sustainable and people-centered business model. Aware of environmental and social challenges, we integrate these concerns into every stage of the design and manufacturing of our high-end umbrellas made in France.

    Each H2O umbrella is designed to be strong, durable, and easily repairable. Driven by a love for quality craftsmanship and a passion for French artisanal tradition, we offer a lifetime guarantee on all our models. If you notice a manufacturing defect or malfunction, your umbrella is covered by our renowned unlimited warranty. We will gladly repair it free of charge—only shipping and packaging costs remain your responsibility.

  • Our French know-how

    All our umbrellas are made in France, in our artisanal workshop located in Crépon, near Caen in Normandy. Committed to supporting and preserving the local economy, we prioritize sourcing raw materials from local partners.

    Transparency is a core value at H2O Parapluies. We fully stand by our choices and every aspect of our artisanal production. This allows us to ensure optimal traceability of our raw materials, and we are happy to share behind-the-scenes insights with our customers—further reinforcing our commitment to authenticity and the quality of premium French umbrellas.
