Authentic Gophers Helmets

[GopherPoke]

Is there a location in MN to purchase "authentic" Gophers football helmets? Or, where have you purchased one, online or otherwise? Not looking for replicas. Thank you!

I got one from https://www.thespeedycheetah.com

Is that a dumb name? Yes, yes it is.

But I'm happy with it, I think i got the recommendations from here. Their selection right now for gophers is kinda limited. I got a gold helmet with Goldy's face on the side

You have the one that I think I'd like.

Funny that this should be asked. I have been digging for a helmet like that as well. I want the exact one they wore in the bowl game. Gold with the block M on one side and Goldy on the other. I'd even get a mini of that one just to sit on my desk. I love that design.

Haven’t checked Speedy Cheetah in awhile, but I have 3 from them which I’m very happy with.

Looks like they haven’t restocked Gophers selections in some time - only have white versions listed.

You can also scan ebay. They have some different ones from time to time. Looks like they specifically have a number of throwbacks right now.

I have a replica, but it has Tyler Johnson’s autograph on it and it sits prominently in my office.

That's a cool one.

I only have an (unsigned) gold replica from around 7 or 8 years ago. Also a Shede/KJ Maye signed mini helmet. Signed Gophers helmets aren't super easy to come by.....which would explain why I have several signed Vikings helmets and other Gophers signed stuff instead.

Don't the Gophers have an equipment sale some time in the spring with game used stuff?

It's usually every other year, so maybe not until 2026. I have been to a couple of them. Never seen any helmets (for any sport) there.

Not to mention the people that get in first buy all the good stuff right away.
