>>8947168 A lot of shops around here have those, but then, it's expected to rain here, a lot. As long as I'm well covered, nice overcoat and hat, I'm fine with the rain. You'd think I'd be sick of rain by now, but I really do enjoy it, particularly at night. In fact if it's raining out around 7-9, I'll probably go out to the shop around that time to go out and listen to the rain as I walk the mostly empty streets. I hear a part of Japan's obsession with umbrellas has something to do with acid rain. The umbrella companies must make a killing spreading information like that.
