KETL Mtn Apparel Discount Code has been suspended due to the Promo Code getting out for the masses to use without actually listening to the podcast. I'm sorry about this.

I still stand behind KETL Mtn Apparel 100% and believe they have some of the best products on the market, especially at very reasonable prices even without the code when compared to a lot of other brands.
