Hasta La Gadget!

Just as the Hylian Shield – in its many incarnations – has protected Link from countless projectiles and attacks, so will this backpack protect your books, Nintendo handhelds and any stray rupees you find.

Etsy seller Ivana Roso aka pepolina said she sewed the individual parts by hand, then put the backpack together using a sewing machine. She didn’t say what materials she used, although looking at it I think it’s made of synthetic leather.

Here’s the backpack held as if it were actually a shield. Emulate at your own risk.

You can order the Hylian Shield backpack from Ivana’s Etsy shop for only $60 (USD).
