I'm sure there are some star wars nerds out there somewhere .... :p

Sure, your kids looked pretty adorable out there on the slopes in their R2-D2 snowboarding helmets. We hate to break it to you, though: the droid look wasn't quite cutting it during the apres-ski cocoa-quaffing session. (Definitely weren't the droids we were looking for. Nope.)
We're thinking some cozier headgear would've been a bit more apropos. A helmet, after all, looks a tad out of place indoors. Unless, of course, it's--gasp--a custom crocheted Boba Fett helmet!

Yes, "Star Wars" geeks and geekettes, thanks to BeeBeeKins at Etsy, now just such an item can be had. A no-doubt toasty-warm Boba Fett helmet-hat that will keep your kiddies' ears snug while saving you the crushing embarrassment of ill-headgeared apres-ski offspring. (We mean, really--what would Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru have said? [If the stormtroopers hadn't gotten to them first, of course.])

Always the Burton R2-D2 helmet ...
