Where'd you get that f&%$in awesome apparel thread

So this past Sunday, I flew back to Jersey (Newark, natch) from Portland, OR. I was seated next to a guy with a seriously kickass Mets cap that I can't seem to find anywhere. It was fitted, wool (I think; it looked very high quality anyway. In fact, I could swear it had a New Era logo on the back, but their website reveals no such cap that I can find), wool, and black, with Mr. Met doing his thing in the standard logo position right above the brim. The whole thing was done in black, white and grey. Myself, I'd prefer some color on Mr. Met and a blue cap, but it was a very, very cool hat.
Long story short, I'm a little socially anxious, so I never got around to asking him where he got it. Any ideas? Any chance you're that guy?

Uhhh, I think so. Pretty much, except it was all in black, white and gray stitching on a black cap. Anyway, I'd have preferred color, myself. So, where'd you get that f%&$in awesome hat? Is it fitted?

No, It's not fitted. But it has a handsome little brass buckle and a canvas strap to make my adjustment experience as fashionable as possible. Baby found it for me on the Bay of E.

I had long wanted one. In fact my initial target was the royal blue one that says "1962" that is described elsewhere in that thread. But I'm very happy with the one I got.

It's from a line called "The Cooperstown Collection." I'm not sure if they're still being made.

Ms. Edgy went back and found her dealer for you:

Here.

It's the same as mine, but you can write the dealer and ask if she has it in the color you like.
