2. it "goes" with the type of clothes most people wear when it is raining (especially historically when most people wore dark colors as outer coats, etc.)
3. it's traditional

Black goes with everything. I mean, if most umbrellas were bright purple with sparkles, for example, people just wouldn't be as inclined to use them.
You can buy different colored umbrellas, though, you know, you don't have to use a black one.

It's neutral - men and women, any age, any style, any outfit, acceptable for business, etc.
