The Wiesnhelts Are the Perfect Safety Accessory for Oktoberfest
Oktoberfest is almost upon the unsuspecting citizens of Munich, and the best way to remain safe during the drunken revelry is by wearing a Wiesnhelt (German for Oktoberfest helmet).
The 18-day festival, held annually throughout Germany's Bavarian region, is a time for unadulterated bacchanalia -- flagons of pilsner, roasted pork and buxom barmaids are all vital ingredients to a successful Oktoberfest. Yet, despite drinking until temporary blindness, the locals take safety very seriously and what's more safe than a helmet? Named for the field which hosts the festival, the Wiesnhelt is a hardhat made to look like the traditional Bavarian cap. Design company brandHelt-Pro makes it clear that safety and style aren't mutually exclusive and encourages cyclists to enjoy the festivities while maintaining a decorum of style.
Just don't expect these helmets to keep your head safe from a hangover. Oh, and remember to drink safely!
