RAIN RAIN GO AWAY

This Ergonomic Umbrella Is a Smarter Way to Stay Dry

Umbrella innovation is one of those things that you always hope for to avoid awful flips in inclement weather—but don’t think anyone is ever working on.

If you’ve ever been caught in a severe rainstorm — you know the kind where your umbrella flies up, making you feel like Mary Poppins, except you’re soaking wet and possess zero magical powers — then you know it’s miserable. Everyone should own a durable, wind-resistant umbrella, and the SwissTek Double Layer Smart Umbrella is a great option that also happens to two-pack sale for President’s Day.

This windproof umbrella is made of UV-protecting fabric, so you’re covered rain or shine. Perhaps the most innovative feature is its reverse-folding design that opens from the top rather than the bottom, making it easier to open, close and store. This reverse-folding design keeps the wet part on the inside, so your umbrella won’t drip all over when you close it up. It also stands vertically to create an effective draining method while closed. With functionality at the core of its design, this smart umbrella features an ergonomic C-shaped grip that goes around your wrist, leaving your hands free.

It usually goes for $144, but you can get two on sale for $33 — just in case you leave one behind somewhere. That’s 77% off the original price, and in honor of President's Day Weekend, Daily Beast readers can save an additional 20% by using code USA20 at checkout.
