We love Vancouver's new "Raining Men" umbrella by Cheeky Umbrella. It's made with a lightweight aluminum shaft and wind-resistant fibreglass. Designer Jen Zurowski made sure this rainblocker was cheerful, too, with flowers on the outside and sunny fabric on the underside.

Her philosophy?

"[Rain] is a fact of life here. You can't hide from it so you might as well rock it," says Zurowski. Kind of embrace the rainy weather instead of hiding from it".
