What Reviewers Say

The water-reactive pattern is real and delightful. Gets compliments every time it rains. Sturdy enough for Japanese weather. UV protection is a nice dual-use feature. The sakura pattern is subtle when dry, dramatic when wet. Some note it's slightly heavier than basic folding umbrellas.
