Yeah, Mark. So if you look at the way that the margins are evolving, as we've said for the – as we work our way through the year, right, we're going to use price and mix to offset some of the pressures that we were seeing from fiber perspective, and some of the headwinds that we saw from the manufacturing cost standpoint, some of the headwinds, for example, that we called out last quarter, right, as we saw things like supply chain disruptions in Central America, and we've seen ramp-up costs associated with really driving more active wear to a certain extent, some of the inflationary pressure. So we knew that these cost pressures were coming through and we've been managing that with price and mix. And really, if you look at the evolution of the year and as we move into Q4, I think you will really see from a gross margin perspective that the price and mix effectively will allow us to cover the increases we've seen in fiber manufacturing cost. And then clearly we've got this really good drop through of the improvement in SG&A that will be coming through. So if you look at our margins overall and we head to the end of the year we said from an operating margin perspective, we expect that our margins will be slightly down. And now, I think we feel pretty positive about the way we're going to end the year from a margin perspective as far as hitting that. And then as we move into 2019, we got a lot of good drivers from an overall perspective. We're not going to give guidance right now on margin for 2019 where you can see all of these factors are playing through very nicely. From a cost perspective, you've got to remember, we had that $0.08 coming through that we called out last quarter, and then we've had some other impacts in the supply chain from Hurricane Florence, for example, that we'll be dealing with and then all of that basically, for the most part, will work our way through as we head into 2019. So, I think we're well positioned as we end the year and head into the next year.
