Japanese people love umbrellas and there are many related products. On the other hand, I've heard that people in North America hardly use umbrellas. Is that true?
- gucci-on-fleek 5mo ago> I've heard that people in North America hardly use umbrellas. Is that true? I'm Canadian (Alberta specifically), and I never use umbrellas, and I hardly ever see anyone else using them either. I've also travelled to lots of the other Canadian provinces and US states, and I don't remember ever seeing people using umbrellas there either. But this could be very local, so there might be regions in NA where umbrella usage is more common.
- teppeik 5mo agoYes. I once guided two Canadian friends on a tour of Japan, and even when it rained, they didn't use umbrellas (they didn't even own any). Instead, they used things like Arc'teryx waterproof parkas.
