I was at the local meadery yesterday, and a gentleman walked in wearing and Iron Man hoodie and a very nice Raiders fedora. I asked him about it and he said it was made by the same guys who… I interrupted him and said Adventurebilt? I have one too. He introduced himself as Mick. I took a look at his hat.

Great shot! Great hat and superb looking young man, by your side there :) ! By the way -- jacket looks good too. But, the young fellow steals the photo -- he is your star, in this shot :clap: ! W>
