The MOD Umbrella is not just an accessory—it’s a statement. Designed with the agency’s spirit of rebellion and precision, it reflects the tough, unapologetic attitude that defines MOD. Inspired by MOD’s iconic logo, the brass knuckles take shape in this striking umbrella, symbolizing the agency’s unwavering commitment to pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo. With gold accents and meticulous engraving, it blends the toughness of a street-smart edge with the refined elegance of a polished finish.



We’re fearless. We believe in the power of aesthetics and how the mind responds to and is inspired by thoughtful design. The MOD Umbrella is an embodiment of that philosophy. It’s a modern suit of armor—designed to weather the storm with style and strength. Black with gold detailing, this umbrella channels a refined rebel spirit, balancing toughness with attention to the smallest, most intricate details. Our swagger was inspired by the dichotomy of tattoos and polish—raw yet refined, bold but elegant. Beautiful, sexy, and irreverent. It’s the perfect fusion of form and function. 



The MOD Umbrella is a symbol of the agency’s ethos: to leave something better than we found it. Presented as a holiday gift to employees, partners, and clients, and as a unique onboarding token for new team members, it stands as a high-quality, memorable gesture that reflects MOD’s commitment to excellence, creative swagger, and rebel attitude. Designed to make an impression in any setting, it’s the perfect blend of style, strength, and confidence for those who lead with fortitude and vision.
