Inside-out umbrella keeps your house dry

The umbrella is a great invention that keeps us dry especially when year-end monsoon showers often pour without warning. It messes up only when the water rolls off after closing the brollie as you step inside the house. Argh.

The Inside Out Umbrella addresses this issue with a simple flap that pulls the dry, inner layer over the wet one and catches all that water from the outer piece. It's an elegant way to hold the brollie if you were in a shopping mall, though the idea is currently still a concept. Meanwhile you'll still have to rely on flimsy, see-through plastic holders, or invest in a proper cover if your umbrella doesn't already come with one.
