Looking for a specific hot shoe adapter...unsure of the name/brand

I'm looking for a new umbrella bracket/hot shoe adapter for my flash and I've settled on the Manfrotto bracket, but the adapter is still up the air. I'm considering the Frio cold shoe or one that I keep seeing on the Manfrotto Justin Clamp, but I don't know where to find the shoe part by itself. I see it everywhere in Syl Arena's book but when searching B&H I can't find it at all.

Any idea as to what brand it is or where I can find it?

Flashzebra has umbrella brackets with cold shoes. Check out the first two products on this page:

Thanks! I'm currently using a set up similar to that, but it's an off brand clamp with built in shoe mount that I got off Amazon. It doesn't hold my flash worth a damn which the reason I'm moving away from that style mount.

I'm a big proponent of the Frio, though.

Can you sell me on the Frio? It looks amazing. I just worry about the reviews that Sao try broke easily. Of course sometimes you have to take them with a grain of salt.

I like it because it IS plastic.

A: I don't want a metal shoe coming into contact with the pins on the bottom of my flash. I can't imagine good things happening if that does. At first I used to put a piece of electrical tape over the metal shoe, but after a while I wasn't as cautious. It would be super easy for that metal shoe to get bent in transport and allow the pins on the flash to come in contact with it. I don't know what happens if it does, but I don't want to be the guinea pig.

B: I'd rather my Frio break than my strobe in the event of a tip over. It is designed to do just that. It says it on their site and in their instructions. I think the people that have problems with them are overloading them, thus making the thing break and letting their flash fall. When simply used just to clip a flash on a stand, I've NEVER had a problem.

If you exceed the load of a Frio, it will break. If you have it up on something and someone hits it, it could break.....but then again, so could the shoe of the flash. I've had instances where my stand was knocked over. Sometimes the Frio broke, sometimes the shoe did.

I like and use this one.
