Subtly Geeky Booze Containers

The Zelda Hylian Shield Flask Lets You Get Liquored Up with Link

— January 14, 2013 — Lifestyle
Geeks looking for a way to take the edge off during marathon gaming sessions are going to want to check out the Legend of Zelda Hylian Shield Flask. Those who haven't spent time in Hyrule with Link may not recognize the designs on this flask. For those not in the know, the symbols on this flask are the Hylian Shield and Master Sword from the series. The designs are etched onto the flasks using an industrial-strength laser and personalized engraving can be done as well.

Geeky flasks are nothing new nowadays. However, there are very few that are designed specifically for fans of the Zelda series. The best thing about this design is that it isn't overtly nerdy. If anything, the flask is tastefully geeky and would probably appeal to someone who has never picked up a game controller in their life. The Zelda Hylian Shield Flask sells for $20 and is available now.
Trend Themes
1. Geeky Flasks - The popularity of subtly geeky flasks among gamers presents opportunities for custom designs for different fandoms.
2. Personalized Engraving - The addition of personalized engraving on flasks and other drinkware allows for unique and personalized gifts for special occasions.
3. Tasteful Nerdy Designs - The demand for tastefully designed nerdy products shows potential for creating similar products for other fandoms or interests.
Industry Implications
1. Gaming Merchandise - The gaming merchandise industry can benefit from offering more subtly themed products like the Zelda Hylian Shield Flask.
2. Custom Giftware - The custom giftware industry can expand by offering personalized engraving services on various drinkware products like the Hylian Shield Flask.
3. Pop Culture Apparel - The pop culture apparel industry can create more subtly themed products like the flask to appeal to a wider audience.
