Predator remains one of the most iconic action films ever made, and now you can embody the greatest hunter of them all with these slick motorcycle helmets.
When you think of classic film and TV characters who wear helmets, what springs to mind? Iron Man, the Power Rangers, Darth Vader, or maybe The Knights Who Say Ni? They’re all quality examples, but out of all of them, perhaps one of the most iconic and distinctive helmets to ever grace a screen has to be those worn by the alien warrior-hunter race we know as the Predators. From the large, armor-plate forehead to the rows of cable-like dreadlocks in the rear, the silhouette of a Predator’s face alone is enough to let you know that he’s hot on your trail.
Because the Predator’s helmet is such a distinctive vibe, it’s only natural to want to wear one for yourself. Of course, there aren’t many opportunities to wear a full helmet in your daily life without getting weird looks. If there’s one area where you could get away with such a look, though, it would be wearing a full-face helmet when riding atop a motorcycle. This is why various manufacturers and artist collectives have created full motorcycle helmets in the Predator’s image. We can’t speak for their protective prowess or cost efficiency, but we definitely know what we like to look at, and it’s these helmets.Feel the bite of the Predator Collective Spiked Predator Helmet
In « Aliens vs Predator: Requiem », the main Predator that came to Earth in order to hunt down the Xenomorphs is named Wolf. Wolf’s helmet was distinctive from his fellow hunters’ thanks to the numerous teeth-like spikes that line its top. If Wolf was your favorite Predator, then good news: you can wear it yourself.
From Predator Collective comes the Spiked Predator Helmet, covered in the same circular row of spikes as Wolf’s helmet, as well as various tribal markings and scratches indicative of Wolf’s many battles. The helmet has built-in dreadlocks, though you can customize the exact number between 20 and 40 threads if you want more or less coverage in the back. The helmet comes in a variety of colors, including red, matte black, white, blue, and alien green, but the closest one to the classic look would probably be the silver version. As an added perk, the inner lining is machine washable, which is vital for keeping any helmet from smelling like you’ve actually just been hunting Aliens.
