Watching Star Wars at the theater is much, much more than pure entertainment. It’s also a gathering to unite fans from all walks of life and an opportunity to wear the best Star Wars gear you’ve got. To mark the occasion of “Star Wars Episode I Phantom Menace” hitting theaters on Feb. 10 in 3D, here are Ten [...]

When the skies are gray and Mother Nature is raining on your parade, you can brighten the day (and the mood) with the eye-catching Color Changing Umbrella. The white raindrop border is stylish all by itself, but things really liven up when that same border displays a bright splash of color. Magic? Sort of, but [...]

I don’t know how much rain Darth Vader really has to worry about. He’s either on the Death Star, flying his TIE Fighter (TIE Advanced x1), or simply cruising around on a Super Star Destroyer. Luke on the other hand, he’s running around in the swamps of Dagobah training with Yoda; he could probably use [...]

Ever tried walking in the rain with an umbrella over your head and bumping into the person/lamp post/mailbox that was right in front of you? Chances are you already have, if you’ve got one of those bigger and deeper domed umbrellas. If you feel like you might have already bumped a few things too many, [...]

Christmas is almost here and that means so is the rain, freezing rain, and snow. If you are still looking for some stocking stuffer ideas, these Rain Parade Umbrellas designed by Laurent Mouveau will do nicely. They help keep you dry and look cool while doing it.

“Don’t go walking alone in the dark, especially when it’s raining,” my mother always used to say. And really, she didn’t need to warn me. I don’t want to go prancing around at night in a downpour just waiting to get mugged. And while the Glow-in-the-Dark Planisphere Folding Umbrella won’t make you mug-proof, it will [...]

Looking for something different in an umbrella? Something that makes it look like you are carrying a bottle of wine instead of an umbrella? Then check out the Wine Bottle Umbrella.

Umbrellas are boring, but useful items, so anytime we can spice things up we like it. Take this Mini Samurai Sword Black Ninja Folding Umbrella for instance. Passersby won’t know if you are a secret Ninja or just plain crazy when they see the hilt of your Samurai sword.

So you’ve tucked your Fanbrella safely into your Umbrella Messenger Bag, but for some reason, things still don’t feel right. If you prefer to have the handle out of your face, then maybe the Backpack Umbrella would be more up your alley.

Do you remember Harrison Fords character, Rick Deckard, in the classic movie Blade Runner? If not, go rent the movie and you’ll see it rains a lot in the future and you’ll need an umbrella; so you might as well use the same styled one Harrison Ford did. The Blade Runner LED Umbrella is a [...]
