It is said there are two certainties in life: death and taxes. If you live in England, a third should be added: rain. Given this fact, an umbrella is not so much an accessory but a necessity... a constant companion.
In 1868, during the reign of Queen Victoria, Mr Thomas Fox opened a shop in the city of London, to sell such necessities. Since that time Fox umbrellas have always been made to the highest quality standards, crafted from the finest woods and materials.
