There’s something romantic and nostalgic about a visit to the Umbrella Shop where umbrellas in bright colours, fabrics and designs line the room, hang from the ceiling and decorate the shop window. The expert staff assist in finding an umbrella that suits any need or design request, with impressive flicks of the wrist that transform metal and fabric into water repellent pieces of art.
The Flader family has been in the umbrella business since 1935, starting with Corry Flader’s grandfather. Since that time, the Umbrella Shop has been passed down through the generations with Corry being the current cohort. “It runs through our veins,” says Corry. “If it’s a rainy day, Fladers are in a good mood.” Today they have three stores with the main one on Broadway, which also houses their factory. The Umbrella Shop is synonymous with quality design, construction and staff that are dedicated to protecting Vancouverites from persistent drizzle.
