I think I don't have to say anything about the quality... was and is always awesome.
BUT, I would like to show, how WootShirts look in different countries. In fact that I am in Germany, and in fact that my hometown is a little boring and in fact that I am in Munich right now and in fact that I am using to many in facts and not coming to an end...
here are my WootShirt experiences on the Oktoberfest in Munich. Just was there on Tuesday (guess what shirt I was wearing then, and yesterday (Wednesday) night.
*pics snipped*
BTW: I also was guest in a German TV Show Game Show and was wearing the Fat Unicorn Tee AND was sitting in the first row... So hopefully, you can see this on TV with me and Brigitte Nielsen.
Funny comment: The mascot of this TV Production Company is a unicorn, I was afraid they wouldn't let me in... but they did and rly LOVED that shirt.
(The show will be broadcasted on Dec 6., I hope I can get a picture from that.
Hey, that's a handsome guy in some cool shirts! Thanks for spreading the Woot love overseas!

i write articles for a little local magazine in arkansas. we do business by email and snail mail, so the one time that i ever went into the office (to pick up some back issues or something), they sat me down and snapped a picture of me, "in case they ever needed it."
so today i happen across the magazine's website, and there's one of my articles, along with a picture of me in my Plan B shirt!
click the (rather dorky) pic to go to the site and read the article, if you're interested.
my loved ones tell me i need to break my wooting habit. i tell them i can quit whenever i want.
and i can!

Very fine shirt, dsladeck !!!
I just received my Season of Change today and even though I LOVE dsladeck's design, I am pretty disappointed with how it printed. The brown cannot be seen and many parts of the shirt appear faded. I thought mine was less brilliant in color but when I took pictures, they pretty much turned out the same way as these photos, so it's kind of misleading.
So while I am a big fan of the design, I'm not thrilled with how it turned out on the shirt.

Anyone tried bleaching dsladek's shirt yet? I'm always a little leery of the brown shirts (having been around for the whole cool breeze discussion) and I know there were some experiments in dyeing the brown shirts, however I don't recall the exact method or what color they came out. I know dyeing the asphault shirts turns them into a nice medium brown cocoa color.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH........ whatever.

I was totally thinking of trying this method but I have zero clue as to how to go about doing this process. However if someone out there has a sure fire way to lighten the shirt without damaging the design or having the shirt come out blotchy, I'd love to know.
Plus I'm sorry I dashed your hopes thejakeyl88. You have no idea how psyched I was about this shirt myself. I don't plan on getting rid of it, but just maybe enhancing it trying out the bleaching method.

https://shirt.woot.com/Forums/ViewPost.aspx?PostID=1556343&PageIndex=10&ReplyCount=527#post1586585 here's a link from the cool breeze thread. I would try wash on warm, small load, 1/4 to 1/2 cup of bleach. Add the bleach first and let the water fill and agitate a min before adding the shirt. Use small amt detergetn if you want. Run the whole cycle. Hang dry if you are worried about shrinkage, or tumble dry on low. (High heat really shrinks these shirts). Good luck guys. Read through the cool breeze thread if you want more ideas.
But if you are really unhappy with how it looks you can email service@woot. They should be used to this printing issue by now. Part of the problem is that the brown of the shirt is darker (I think) than the brown they use in the shirt comp and can be misleading to designers who haven't seen that color in person before. Generally, black on the brown or navy is never going to show up well without some sort of highlight. And brown on brown is going to be hard to see too.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH........ whatever.
