We could do with one of these at the minute.

With the sudden downpours we’ve been getting as of late, it’s no longer wise nor safe to leave the house without an umbrella. However, if you’re not carrying the right equipment, you could be left in a state of embarrassment trying to flip your brolly the right way round thanks to a strong gust. Then finally getting to your destination, you have to leave your soggy umbrella on the floor to form its own puddle. Well, someone has come up with the answer to all our brolly woes, and while it may look bizarre, we’re very tempted to try and get our hands on one.

The inverted umbrella claims to be the first hassle-free brolly on the market and while we didn’t realise an umbrella could be so much hassle before, videos of this bad boy in business prove otherwise.

I mean....this is a DUH moment. Why has this not happened sooner https://t.co/mSrV5tb6bw

I feel like umbrella companies have failed humanity for years until the inverted umbrellas or whatever tf they're called came along.

Thought I had seen everything and then I see an umbrella that opens backwards. ? I can't even. ?
