Master Chief is not the only one born to wear an epic helmet. To celebrate the iconic helmet and launch of Halo Infinite, Riddell and Xbox have teamed up to create a limited production, commemorative Master Chief-inspired helmet to celebrate the recent launch of the game. Produced by Riddell Sports, the leading football head protection manufacturer, the commemorative Master Chief-inspired helmet design was created using Riddell’s SpeedFlex model featuring the Master Chief’s signature green Mjolnir armor color with accents of gray metal and rubberized techsuit colors. Each helmet was weathered by-hand using a custom multi-step painting technique specifically developed for this collaboration, making each helmet one-of-a-kind.
The commemorative helmet also features decals of Master Chief’s iconic Spartan number ‘117’ on the sides of the helmet, along with a special edition Halo ‘20-year anniversary’ decal on the back. Additional upgrades include a special SpeedFlex face mask SF-2EG-TX, a convert-to-black kit that includes black parts, face mask clips, front and back bumpers, custom painted strap-locs and valve caps, and a black hard cup chin strap. The look is completed with an Oakley Pro Shield in Prizm 24k Iridium that closely mimics the visor on Master Chief’s helmet. (The Master Chief inspired helmet is for display use only and is not designed or intended for actual play or use).
A select quantity of this commemorative SpeedFlex helmets is available for purchase at www.riddell.com as a part of the limited production celebration.
