Menacing Monster Hats

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This NeatoShop Gremlin Laplander Snarls at the Snow

— January 31, 2013 — Fashion
The Gremlins' monster hats from the NeatoShop will scare away old man winter. The hat is styled in a very cartoony fashion, but don't let that fool you -- it's mean and green. The face of the gremlin sports a vicious and menacing smile that is true of the Gremlins' way. It also contains entertaining details like a furry tuft of hair on its head and puffed three-dimensional ears.

Laplander hats have become increasing popular, especially because they mix so well with items from popular culture. These monster hats is a perfect example of that.
