4. James Smith and Sons

HOLBORN.   If you're in London, chances are you'll need an umbrella. Why not buy the best from this famous shop that has been selling umbrellas since 1830 and remains a family business? Though the store looks traditional, thanks to a Victorian storefront, the owners take pride in their umbrellas, using the latest frame technology and water-repelling fabrics. They also offer a wide variety of formal and casual styles, umbrella repairs, and an assortment of finely carved canes and walking sticks. A legendary store with unique ambience and high-quality products. TUBE: Tottenham Court Road   (© 10Best)

Beautiful store inside and out. It is more like a museum than a store inside. Very knowledgeable staff. Top quality umbrellas and sticks in stock, as well as some cheaper "mass market" umbrellas. Prices on the high-end specialty items are fair considering the quality. Prices on the lower end items not as competitive, but you shouldn't look here for a cheap umbrella, anyway.
