True fans of the epic poem Beowulf are going to want to pick up a pair of these Beowulf socks. These Beowulf socks aren't much to look at, but they do contain an untranslated piece of the poem written in Anglo-Saxon.
These Beowulf socks may not help you defeat Grendel, but they are the perfect way for you to show your love for your favorite piece of literature/Angelina Jolie film. At five dollars a pair, these socks are also a steal of a deal as well. I AM BEOWULF!
