-Urllib3 is an HTTP library with thread-safe connection
-pooling, file post, and more.
+urllib3 is a powerful, sanity-friendly HTTP client for Python. Much of the Python
+ecosystem already uses urllib3 and you should too. urllib3 brings many critical features
+that are missing from the Python standard libraries:
+
+Thread safety.
+Connection pooling.
+Client-side SSL/TLS verification.
+File uploads with multipart encoding.
+Helpers for retrying requests and dealing with HTTP redirects.
+Support for gzip and deflate encoding.
+Proxy support for HTTP and SOCKS.
+100% test coverage.
