    This is an easy to do idea!

    The umbrella ‘fabric’ could easily be a latex type of product.  The unbreakable but bendable hardware could be manufactured easily as well.  You would only need to buy one (until you leave it at the restaurant by mistake).

    I did some research and found ‘unbreakable umbrellas’ for sale on the net.  They are mostly sold as self defense weapons!  Of course, no one warranteed the fabric.  So what would be the point if that gets ripped up.  This product has room for improvement.
