A better umbrella

It is raining today in NYC - and I've already seen three discarded, mangled umbrellas on the sidewalks. This of course reminded me of Tree Hugger's latest design contest - Umbrella Inside Out. There are two ways to win: 1) design a better umbrella 2) fashion something wearable out of those old umbrellas. check out TH Kyeann Sayer's latest post about it.
