Editor's Pick: You check the forecast before heading out and it says no rain, then halfway there it starts pouring—tucking one of these folding umbrellas in your bag gives you peace of mind. Press the button and it opens automatically, so you can handle it even with a coffee in the other hand. The frame is fiberglass, so it holds up on windy days without flipping inside out like thin metal ribs. To close, just press the button and it retracts automatically; give it a quick shake and it fits right in your bag without taking up much space.
