Dart Designs Dart Designs hand builds high quality designer windbreaks from a combination of new and recycled sailcloth

Dart Designs are the original designer and innovator of the sailcloth windbreak. The Designer - Diana Robbins, formed Dart Designs as a result of her experience as an International windsurfer, and her passion for the coast, windsurfing and sailing. Dart designs hand-builds high quality designer windbreaks from a combination of new and recycled sailcloth. These award winning windbreaks have an abst

ract design based on sail shapes and are each individually created incorporating various nautical features. Twenty years ago, whilst competing, Diana was given some advertising banners made from sailcloth from one of her sponsors, and had the idea of stitching them together to make a windbreak. This first windbreak was made by Diana's Grandmother and has been much admired over the years, with many people asking where they could get one similar, and in fact it is still in use today. The inspiration was also brought about by the general lack of choice and poor quality of the majority of windbreaks currently available, and the desire to create a windbreak which is of high quality, durable, unique, individual, and beautiful. The windbreaks are made in the UK, beside the beautiful river Dart in Devon, and materials are sourced locally where possible.

Thanks to Patrick in the USA for this feedback received today.........
"From across the Atlantic, on the white sandy beaches on the South shore of Long Island, New York....I began my search for a truly different windbreak. My lucky day was finding Dart Designs Windbreaks Co. I knew early on, from communicating with Dart Designs, that I was dealing with a fine and caring company. It ended with me being rewarded with a high quality, top notch windbreak. Magical colors on a field of white sailcloth, that will have me addressing beach walkers as to where I obtained this windbreak, all summer long. And it arrived in perfect condition, do to the efforts made to insure it's safe passage across the pond.
Do I sound pleased ? Absolutely."
