Cliche Wet-Weather Gear

Cutesy ‘Raining Cats n' Dogs' Print Umbrella

I can’t decide whether the use of the age-old expression "it’s raining cats n’ dogs" is a clever cliche to use as design inspiration for the print on the underside of this umbrella, or just plain tacky.

I imagine, however, there are a lot of people out there who would find it extremely cute, and who would immediately add it to their ‘must have’ list.

It’s interesting that the exterior of the umbrella is plain black and the playful print is on the inside. This kind of makes it seem like you are hiding your quirky little secret!
