Microsoft is working with sports companies Riddell and Bauer for limited-edition gear inspired by Halo Infinite. Starting with Riddell, the company created a limited-edition football helmet inspired by Master Chief’s green and gold Mjolnir armor.
The helmet costs $1000, and it’s for display use only–Riddell does not recommend actually using it to play football. Each was hand-drawn using a “multi-step painting technique,” the company said.
Master Chief’s 117 number is printed on the sides, while there is a 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,” Riddell said.
If you’ve got an extra $1000 burning a hole in your pocket, head to Riddell’s website to order yours.
