Need a custom camera case? leicatime is where to go (for the website alone).

I have an umbrella that I love – it is well made and strong. Unfortunately, it is also does not fold.  I hate carrying a big umbrella when I probably won’t even be outside when it rains.

So I’m looking for a new umbrella to complement my current holding.  A criteria I’m trying to use when making new purchases is for the item to be built to last. Enter the Senz mini umbrella – It folds down to 11 inches, is windproof up to a wind force of 40 MPH, never goes inside out aaaand the little tail should keep your backside relatively drier. Now I just have to make up my mind on which color to get!

one of my favorite things from kiosk. handmade in germany since 1848 with tools powered by water turbine.
