The weather is unpredictable. People who live in areas where there exists an increased possibility of getting drenched in the rain would do well to prepare for it. And what better way to prepare for unwanted rainstorms than by bringing an umbrella? If you’ve managed to reach the limits of your carrying capacity, don’t fret, because this one needn’t be carried.
The necktie design definitely has its benefits. It doesn’t take up much real estate, while also making a fashion statement. The disadvantage, however, is that in the event it does rain, then one is left with either skipping the use of a tie or wearing a drenched one––neither one a good look inside the workplace. Collapsible umbrellas exist, leaving very little reason to use a necktie umbrella.
