Funny Head Torches: Novelty Picks for Fancy Dress and Gifts

Novelty styling, an unexpected colour or a costume-inspired design can make a head torch amusing. Check product photos and dimensions to see how it looks when worn.

Only if it fits securely and its beam, visibility and runtime suit your route. A novelty item may be better kept for costume use than relied on as primary safety lighting.

It can work for someone who enjoys novelty gadgets. Check whether batteries are included, how it is powered and whether the wearer can adjust the band.

Look at fit, comfort, battery type, controls and whether the light has a usable beam. Avoid assuming performance from the costume design or listing title.
