From the “what will they think of next?” file, this Japanese invention ensures that even when it’s raining, you have one hand for your coffee and the other free to hold your mobile phone. Of course, it was made for those who are just sick of holding their umbrellas - assuming that’s an actual market.
The Shoulderbrella, available in several colors, simply screws on to the bottom of your umbrella. From there, you can wrap it around one shoulder or both. Just don’t forget to take it off before you go inside!
