The Vintage Merryweather is a community-created headwear item for the Pyro and was chosen by Valve to be released with the second wave of community-contributed content due to its outstanding quality. It appears as a black and gold Merryweather helmet, as used by 19th century fire brigades.

Trivia
- Merryweather helmets were originally produced by the Merryweather company, a 19th-century British manufacturer of firefighting equipment.
- The Merryweather was originally submitted as the "Vintage Pyrolean" (most likely a play on the Vintage Tyrolean's name) and is labeled "pyrolean" in the game files.
- The initial design had the Vintage Merryweather entirely gold, but the author decided to change this due to it appearing too plain and bright. Painting the Vintage Merryweather with Australium Gold paint will make it appear similar to its initial design.[1]
