Sharp List: An Umbrella That’s Actually Worth a Damn

We’re deep into December, but for large swaths of the country it feels a lot more like early April: lukewarm temperatures punctuated by torrential rain and hostile winds. In other words, it’s high time you invested in a proper umbrella.

Unlike that $5 piece of crap you picked up in a pinch at the corner store, the Senz Original won’t blow inside out at the first sign of trouble. Instead, it’s been specially engineered to withstand winds up to 100 km/h, with a swooping, UV protective canopy that’ll keep you high and dry no matter how fierce the storm. Oh, and you’ll also look really damn cool holding it — not the easiest thing to do in the middle of a tempest.
