On a rainy day, everything seems dreary and dark. If you have to walk in a downpour in the evening, you know that it may as well be dark out. It’s hard to see what’s in front of you, which means potholes are all but invisible. I think a good handful of us have probably experienced stepping in a rather deep puddle that we didn’t notice until it was too late (without rain boots on of course).

If you want to shield yourself from the rain but also light your path, the StrideLite Umbrella is something you’ll want to have in your rainy day arsenal. It’s got a 37” diameter when open, and a 32” height. The bulb is on the inside of the umbrella, near the top, so you’ll have your own little cone of light on a gloomy day. This $35 accessory is also a great way to make sure oncoming traffic will notice you at a crosswalk!
