Rain Drum

Rain drum is designed to bring in some colors and some funny sounds in your rainy day. Designed by Dong Min Park this umbrella is made to produce different drum-like sounds when rain drops fall on its surface. link
Hands-Free Umbrella

This umbrella has a special holder that fits comfortably over your shoulder and under your arm so you can keep both hands free. If you’re a Harajuku-watching, sushi-scarfing, videogame-playing freak, you’ve got better things to do with your hands than grip a handle—like play your Nintendo DS on the way to the office. link
Star Destroyer Umbrella

Introducing ‘The Star Wars Star Destroyer Umbrella’. A unique triangular shaped umbrella that folds up just like any other ordinary umbrella. But unlike other umbrellas, this one can withstand the force of a hurricane. Or an attack of a rebel fleet. In space. Warp speed stylez.Unfortunately the Star Destroyer Umbrella is just at concept stage..link
The Gunbrella

The Gunbrella is a real $18 product that looks like one of those pop-guns with the flag that comes out that the Joker would point at Batman.link
Couple Umbrella

This double umbrella could double the rain coverage for lovers. Plus, when closed, it seems like a typical umbrella.link
Knight and Sabre Sword Umbrellas.

Knight and Sabre Sword Umbrellas. An awesome way to stay dry – like Sir Lancelot -or a pirate- used. link
WiFi Umbrella

The premise is pretty simple, the umbrella handle has an LED that glows based on the likelihood of precipitation, so instead of taking the 30 seconds necessary to look up the weather on the Internet, or sticking your head out of a window, you can just glance at your umbrella on the way out. Sounds a lot like Ambient’s Weather Forecasting Umbrella, but beyond looking just plain snazzier, this version pulls all its information off of your Internet via WiFi. link
Full-sized Samurai sword umbrella.

Either we just made it up, or that Haiku dates to around the 14th century. It is a little known fact that Samurai also carried umbrellas. Much as they later had to disguise their swords as canes, so they disguised their umbrellas as swords. In fact, there was one skilled umbrella maker who all the Samurai relied on for their Sword Handle Umbrellas. His name has been buried in the sands of time, but his plans have been preserved. And now, it is with great pleasure that we offer to you, the Samurai Sword Handle Umbrella. link
LED Umbrella with light

LED Umbrella with light goes anywhere you do, in even the worst and wettest elements. It detaches when you need a separate torch. Double stitched seams increase the strength. Pin spring system makes this an easy opening umbrella. With light feature, it becomes a hard working all-weather companion. link
Coffee Loving Umbrella

Designer Jung-Woo Lee of Ek Design must love coffee because this Coffee Loving Umbrella puts the work of coffee-holding and umbrella-holding in the same hand, freeing your other hand to do much more important things like change the song on your iPod, or hail a cab, or open a door, etc. The only thing that doesn’t look right in this product design is the tilt and angle of the umbrella handle. If it’s raining and you’re carrying coffee in this umbrella, be prepared to get soaked! link
