Have you ever seen an umbrella that somehow resembles like a luggage? I can’t simply put into words how amazed I am seeing all these unique umbrellas in Japan. Bibi Lab rolled out another one of a kind product – the rolling umbrella! The tip has twin tires in blue which according to its reference, its made of lightweight and long-lasting polyurethane resin components.(
Aside from the wheels, this umbrella also highlights the prevention of minor accidents like poking someone unconsciously while carrying your ordinary umbrella. The only problem is that it only comes in white and no other options for those who want darker shades.

This has to be one of the coolest umbrellas ever. It features the handle of a katana, a samurai sword, and the fabric bears the family crests of some of Japan’s most famous samurai warlords. As if that wasn’t cool enough when this umbrella gets wet dozens of more crests appear, 28 in all.
Add to that a handy pop-open mechanism and an even handier shoulder bag, and this umbrella will have you hoping for rain!

Vegetabrella is an umbrella that looks like the head of a romaine lettuce. It’s name is a combination of the two words “vegetable” and “umbrella”. When closed it has a very realistic resemblance to a romaine salad head. When opened it becomes a normal umbrella in light green. It is equipped with a small bag in the same green fabric as the umbrella. The ribbon to keep it closed reminds those found on salads in Japanese supermarkets.
The Vegetabrella is sold in a carton box that also resembles Japanese salad boxes. Overall it is a really well designed and fully functional product.
