Hands-Free Umbrellas

These Inverted Umbrellas Clevery Attach to Your Wrist

— May 23, 2016 — Unique
These inverted umbrellas by 'My Matching Studio' can attach to your wrist so that your hands are free and you stay dry at the same time.

The 'Double Layer Inverted Umbrella' has a c-shaped handle and its design makes it easy to open and close in any condition. As many know, having your regular umbrella destroyed in the wind is a common occurrence, making for a frustrating experience that leaves you soaked in the rain.

These inverted umbrellas are made to bend this way, making them more durable in the long run, especially with their thick material that further prevents damage. As the umbrella closes the opposite way of most models, rain is conveniently poured out and the outside of the device is left dry, stopping it from dripping when you are indoors.
