BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0006] The umbrella is a rain gear of choice and valuable for commuters who face unpredictable weather for short periods in connecting with otherwise protected modes of transportation.

[0007] Despite their obvious advantages, umbrellas have always presented a problem when wet. The preferable method of dealing with wet umbrella, if space allows, is to place them open in a protected area until they dry.

[0008] Where space constraints or large numbers of umbrellas prevent such an approach, umbrellas may be put in an umbrella stand, pointed down to drain and dry.

[0009] Generally, some umbrellas come with a sleeve of a water repellent material similar to that used in the umbrella itself Such sleeves are intended to protect the umbrella from abrasion and dirt and are easily ruined or misplaced after it first few uses.

[0010] Various attempts have been made to design a holder to carry a wet umbrella on the shoulder of the user to eliminate coming in contact with the wet umbrella. For example Hilburger U.S. Pat. No. 1,827,524 and Conrad U.S. Pat. No. 2,926,826, however, while these designs address the obvious stated disadvantages they do not provide the ability to change the exterior for style or dress change, a pocket for personal items, removable inner sleeve, and a distinct style for the umbrella holder.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0011] In view of these considerations, there is a definite need for a totally new concept in fashion and design in umbrella holders.

[0012] This invention provides a Cone Shaped Brella Slipper, a distinct design to provide a convenient method of allowing the user to contain the wet closed umbrella while not in use. Previous inventors have failed to consider the lack of style there by limiting the choices for the consumer.

[0013] The Brella Slipper in its array of colors and fabric styles opens a wide variety to both male and female.

[0014] More specifically the Brella Slipper is comprised of an Interior Shell, to receive the closed wet umbrella. The Interior Shell is removable to allow for replacement of incurred damage, and to allow replacement of another Exterior Shell design.

[0015] Then the Exterior Shell encompasses the Interior Shell that makes the fashion statement. In addition adornments are attached to the Exterior Shell to further the fashion statement.

[0016] Next a Protective Collar, sized to conform over the top end or bottom end as a protective addition.

[0017] A Strap is added to suspend the Brella Slipper from the user's shoulder which allows for adjustment for the height of the user.

[0018] An optional convenient Inside Pouch Pocket or Slit Pocket that allows for excess from the outside may be added with a snap closer or Velcro closer for added security.
