The cool new Nubrella ($60) is the ultimate hands free umbrella, but it's no ordinary umbrella. This modern 21st century umbrella isn't simply an improvement on the old stick and canopy design, but is shaped like a futuristic space helmet that not only covers and protects your head from rain, wind, sleet, snow and extreme cold, but your shoulders as well. The aerodynamic oval design of the Nubrella is made of state of the art clear thermoplastic polyurethane that is supported by lightweight and strong aluminum alloy ribs and features an easy spring loaded opening and closing mechanism. It has been tested to withstand winds up to 50mph and will not invert. It even blocks windchill!

I know it may look strange at first glance and some will think it's funny looking, but when nature does go absolutely berzerk, none of that will matter and you'll be the last one laughing. Imagine enjoying a full visibility, leisurely stroll through the howling winds and drenching rains, hands free, dry and talking on the cell phone like nothing was even happening. I predict that in the future, all umbrellas will be designed similar to these, that is, unless we invent personal energy force fields or something.

Although, I think this is a really cool design and would try it out it in a heartbeat, I'd like to know what you think too in the Comments below.
