Etsy boutique Epic Leather has created the ultimate motorcycling accessory called the Steampunk Stormtrooper Mask.
The masks are handcrafted and made of tan leather. To help protect against water, the makers have sealed the leather so it remains relatively waterproof. What is also unique is that the masks can come in white, gray, red, green, black, brown, light brown, purple, navy or patchwork. Epic Leather also states that no two masks will be the same.
Epic Leather has also created another facial mask for riding called the Dragon Rider, which is made of leather as well, but also has real coyote teeth.
These masks are the ultimate badass accessory for any motorcyclist and a great way to shield yourself from the wind when roaring off into the sunset.
