The Alert Umbrella is back and better than ever. After a successful funding campaign on Kickstarter a little while back, the company behind the hi-tech design has decided to introduce two new sizes due to demand. Now available in mini and grande, the Alert Umbrella is able to serve even more purpose depending on the situation at hand.
Designed by Davek New York, the Alert Umbrella boasts a tracking chip in its handle to ensure people don't lose this necessity ever again. After all, it's one of the most common occurrences. Connecting to a dedicated app, people are able to find their lost or misplaced Alert Umbrella in no time. It actually tells you when you've left it behind so you haven't strayed too far.
