If it's raining, sleeting or snowing hard enough for you to grab an umbrella while taking your dog for a walk, shouldn't your little friend get some weather protection as well?

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Thu, 15 May 2008 18:17:25 -0500

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.

During the day the sun's light charges the umbrella. At dusk, 24 White LED lights embedded in the spreaders and center canopy automatically turn on, gently illuminating the space underneath for up to 8 hours.

The Mini Sky Umbrella is the first umbrella I've ever seen that is fully automatic. At the push of a button, the umbrella automatically opens or closes by itself and also reveals a printed beautiful sunny day pattern under the canopy with blue skies and hint of puffy white clouds!

Avalon Rechargeable Umbrella Light

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 15:19:54 -0500

The Avalon Rechargeable Umbrella Light connects to your patio umbrella to provide soft, natural, evening lighting for you and your guests. What's cool is that it can be placed under the canopy to provide down-lighting or on the table for up-lighting using 24 long-life LED lights and no cords or wires required. On a warm summer night, there's nothing better than relaxing under the stars, but you still need to be able to see where you put your drink.

Banana Leaf Patio Umbrella Tree

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Tue, 01 May 2007 00:32:21 -0500

Why do we even bother to attempt to create a better patio umbrella, since nature always does it better. When it's windy, plants and trees stand strong (usually), when it's raining they shelter us well (lightning not figured in) and when I'm drinking a cocktail outside, they make it seem much more tropical and peaceful. Regular patio umbrellas hardly compare when you think about it, which is why I want the best of both worlds, the Banana Leaf Patio Umbrella Tree. This umbrella simply redefines cool as far as outdoor patio umbrellas go, but unfortunately doesn't come with any bananas or a monkey friend.

Blade Runner Style LED Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 21:38:40 -0500

I'm a total Blade Runner fan. I absolutely love the film and I've always wanted one of those cool light up neon umbrellas. Well, now I can totally geek out and pretend I'm in a futuristic rainy Los Angeles, tracking down replicants with the ultra cool Blade Runner style replica LED Umbrella. Just push the button and the super bright LEDs illuminate the umbrella shaft in an off world glow. Now if they could just merge this umbrella with the equally cool Darth Vader Lightsaber Umbrella, then they would be really close to having the ultimate umbrella for those standing in line at Sci-Fi conventions or watching "attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion".

Darth Vader Lightsaber Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Fri, 06 Apr 2007 20:46:24 -0500

If Darth Vader owned an umbrella... hmm this post may get a bit too geeky if I'm not careful... No Darth Vader the Dark Lord of the Sith didn't own an umbrella, I'm sure he could simply use a dark side force ray shield or have a stormtrooper hold one for him. However, back here on Earth we can get what we would envision his to be. The cool new Darth Vader Lightsaber Umbrella has a realistically styled lightsaber hilt handle with an automatic telescoping pole that holds a 40 inch umbrella. No the pole doesn't glow red like it should, but it does store inside a red nylon sleeve when not in use. May the Force be with us all...

Refreshing Cool Mist Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 14:14:20 -0500

The sweltering hot summer is fast approaching and it's time to prepare. I found one cool new product this year that not only provides plenty of shade, but also a unique cooling mist. The Cool Mist Umbrella is like a traditional patio table umbrella except this one provides 95' sq. of shade and generates a cooling mist around the canopy. Simply connect your standard garden hose to the base of the umbrella and cool off those hot humid days with the refreshing relief of a gentle cooling mist. I wonder if the falling mist helps keeps insects away too?

Lighted Palm Tree Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Fri, 30 Mar 2007 00:58:48 -0500

You can't beat a palm tree for good shade, so throw out that old patio table umbrella and slide in the incredibly cool Lighted Palm Tree Umbrella. Your backyard is now one step closer to a tropical paradise!

Invisible Man Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 12:06:11 -0500

What's better than a regular old umbrella on a rainy day? One that looks like the Invisible Man, of course. Maybe you don't, but I definitely think the Invisible Man Umbrella is super cool, even though he looks more like a flasher waiting to strike (he's invisible so it shouldn't matter anyways).

Remote Controlled Market Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Tue, 04 Apr 2006 17:16:00 -0500

We seem to have remote controls for everything in our lives, why not add patio umbrellas to the list. This one allows you to adjust the lift and tilt of the umbrella with a remote control up to 40 feet away.

Half-Circle Umbrella, Table and Chairs

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Sat, 01 Apr 2006 08:06:00 -0600

Yep, it's basically a patio set that's cut in half and would be ideal for apartments or condos with balconies. Cool idea.

Solar-Powered Lighted Patio Umbrella

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Tue, 21 Jun 2005 12:00:00 -0500

Not only does this umbrella provide exceptional shade during the hot summer days, it also lights up for entertaining friends and family in the evening.
