I will readily admit that my nerdy heart skipped a beat upon seeing The Viking Helmet. The helmet may not give you the strength needed to defeat dragons, but damn it sure does look good.
Each Viking Helmet is handmade in Los Angeles using polar fleece. According to the seller the helmet is made to last, which is good as I can see many a LARPer (live-action role-player) wearing this helmet into "battle." If you are looking to up your geek-street cred and have money to blow, then the fleece Viking Helmet can be yours for a mere $39.
Pretend like it's Halloween all year round with this intimidating helmet that's sure to gain some attention.
