The Chieftan's Challenge is an unlockable headwear item for the Soldier. It is a classic stereotypical Native American headdress, worn by Chiefs from the early 1850s to the late 1910s.
Trivia
- Chieftan's Challenge, a traditional headdress of Native Americans, was made from eagle feathers. This meant that for one to acquire said feather one would have to hunt for an eagle. In some American Indian tribes individuals had to go through many tribulations to receive or be allowed to make a headdress. Individuals would first have to be respected people of their community such as a chief or great warrior. Then, most often the person would be allowed by his people to leave the daily life of the village to hunt down an eagle. This task could take a substantial amount of time which is probably why the developers name the item so.
- The hat may be tied to the Soldier's affiliation with eagles.
- It is likely that this hat was added in reference to the Control Point TF2 Podcast, as there is a suggestion for a Native American themed Soldier update mentioned within an episode.
- The name of this hat is misspelled (the correct title is "chieftain"). This may be a joke pertaining to the Soldier's glaring ignorance of history and other cultures.
