Inexplicable bat umbrella via MaxiGlob. I’m assuming it’s Photoshop, but I hope I’m wrong.

   Seems real enough. Might not be too functional, but I can see how it was made. To me, in my opinion, it looks like they cut out two, and part of a third in the middle, of the fabric sections from a normal umbrella, cut down the metal support sticks, then reshaped the middle segment to look like bat ears. Again, that’s all my opinion, but I’m a huge DIYer.

   I’m not sure how practical that is, but both that and the one Sara posted look awesome.

    A bit of googling found this:

    Which suggests it’s only a concept piece! Shame, as it’s kinda cute!
