Shoe umbrellas
Here’s another novelty invention that we’re sure isn’t even popular in Japan. In fact, many have called this product useless, and we’re inclined to agree. That doesn’t mean it’s not a neat invention that most people would give a try at least once.

If you’re tired of getting the toes of your shoes yet, then this is the perfect invention. The shoe umbrellas stop your toes from getting wet when it’s raining cats and dogs. However, it’ll do nothing to protect your feet against splashes of water. A standard umbrella will work just as fine, but it’s not nearly as fun(ny) as this.
