Canopi by ShedRain 52" Auto Open Bubble Rain Umbrella - Clear

This umbrella feels sturdy and well-constructed; I didn't worry about the wind or bumping into things. The clear panels make it easy to navigate city streets, though if the canopy was a little tighter to my body it would be great for extra crowded sidewalks. It still comes down far enough on the sides to fully shield my face and hair from the elements, it's just more gently sloped and less bubble-like/domed than some similar umbrellas I've seen. Upside: This makes it easier to shelter someone else, too. I've gotten lots of compliments on its classic style—“very Audrey Hepburn” was one—and I love the black trim. I also love the handle; no rubberizing, which is great news for anyone else with a latex allergy! It's simple to open/close, even with arthritic hands. I'd definitely buy another as a gift for someone else.
