ROOKIE MANUAL - Umbrella
It takes time for thoughts to turn into ideas and ultimately products. This was also the case for Knirps with the development of the student umbrella ROOKIE, which has been planned for years to complete the product range. Now the time has finally come: ROOKIE is developed, designed, and produced, and will accompany students aged six and up on their way to school, the playground, or sports starting in October. The manually operated and easy-to-use umbrella weighs 205 g, has a diameter of 90 cm, and has been reliably tested in a wind tunnel up to 80 km/h. For added safety, there is a reflective band around the umbrella canopy. For the school umbrella aimed at cool teenagers, Knirps has opted for a design that avoids typical children's motifs; there are no unicorns, princesses, or dragons on the canopy. Instead, alongside six bold and clear solid colors, the cheeky eye-catcher design Bubble Bust features neon-colored splashes on a black background. Additionally, the geometric and colorful designs Triple Blue and Triple Pink are available. Design and safety must not be mutually exclusive, which is why safety is also a top priority in the design variants, and the reflective band adorns these canopies as well. Thanks to its handy packing size, there is always room for the ROOKIE in a school bag, purse, or backpack, ensuring that no child or teenager will be caught off guard by the rain anymore. Its easy handling and durable materials make ROOKIE the perfect companion for everyday life, and parents can rest assured that their little ones are safe and visible in traffic due to the reflective elements. Knirps offers a five-year warranty on the entire product range, further emphasizing the quality of the umbrellas designed and developed in Germany.
