Odyssey Umbrella™

We humans think we’re pretty powerful, don’t we? In fact, many of us spend the vast majority of our lives trying to control things. Take the weather. We track it and obsess over it, talk about it incessantly and worry about it as if doing so will make a difference. And guess what? It never does. But it has led to the creation of that oh-so-functional tool known as “the umbrella.” And hey, it’s a pretty handy design. Because while there may have been a couple throughout the 4,000 year history of the umbrella (thanks, Wikipedia) that have been more attractive than a black cocktail stick, the GFC Odyssey Umbrella™ could be the first one you’ve ever seen that is worth the optical energy required to actually look at. And we hope you do just that. Not to merely soak up The Rabbit’s wander, but to also see beyond. Past the pragmatic function of “umbrella as insulator,” and into the realm of “umbrella as facilitator.” Arming you to get out there and mix it up like the modern-culture human animal that you are.
