Bought this hat a couple months ago and haven’t taken it off since. Can anyone tell me when it was made or just any cool info on it?

seeing the bird print on the inside of the hat immediately made me think of the old AR7s, I'm guessing the hat is from that era?
these are the 2013 model

Those were the skis that I coveted the most when I was younger. Instantly thought anyone on them were to coolest skier on the hill.

After digging through multiple dealer catalogs I was unable to find that specific hat, but it looks like 2012/2013 (10 year anniversary) was the year they used that bird design on a lot of things. You can check out some of the branding herehttps://issuu.com/zuzupopo/docs/120822084405-86a1a02e9afb4b72b2daa2d50d604a7b

I still miss my first armadas. 2009 AR6s. Wish I still had them. I thought the graphics were so dope and loved how Armadas were so rare then. You never saw them.

Memories..... When I got these I thought I was such hot shit they were wonderful. I went from the space frame 1080s to these. Loved the shit out them. So much pop and really could hold speed. To think a 180 with 80 underfoot was a big ski at one pointe in time
I don't dare ski them as they have rotted away. But some day they will make a great bench
