Shirt.Woot

shirt.woot does seem to have an obsession with bacon. though at least that one was somewhat creative.

that's debatable.

This is really dumb.

This is seriously the greatest shirt to ever grace the woot closet....

Y'know, that bacon's looking a bit on the lean side, kind of like Kevin Bacon I suppose.

Some deliciously easy $1000. Mmm..

My name is Kevin so I was thinking, "sweet I should totally buy this shirt."

Then I got the reference and my heart sank.

I need a 4x in this company's size. I have been wanting to buy since "Plan B" but I don't like the skin-tight fit. I'll '''pay extra''' but can't you offer something bigger than 3x... (their 3x)


c'm0n....


I'll pay youy

this design is cancellation. sorry to the creator for blatancy.

Not to be offensive or anything, but this is honestly the worst design I've yet seen print on Woot. I honestly don't get why anyone, even a bacon lover, or a Kevin Bacon lover, would *ever* want to wear this, even if it was given to them as a gift.

I do mean that seriously. Can someone who bought it explain? Maybe I'm missing something...

I would have bought this shirt but my name isn't Kevin. Too bad huh?

Laziness is a virtue.

Probably because it's at least 7 degrees from funny.

And really, if you're using photos this simply, do you REALLY deserve a grand?

It doesn't look like a photo to me....it looks like something someone made on Paint or something similar...

Also I don't like this because I don't think a design like this would look good on boobs

Hello, my name is Sir Francis.

wonder if pic of Bacon Salt would help?

Can I wear this Kevin Bacon shirt while bakin' some bacon?

I dunno, woot's writeup seems very confident that it is a photo. They make a big deal out of it, even. As if they're proud they're selling something that took so few manminutes to create.

You just don't understand these things. Photos of bacon that don't actually look like photos of bacon are super hard to work with. You have no idea what sort of turmoil they went through to create this shirt.

Wearing this shirt in public may indicate the fallowing: you're far to lazy to even think about eating healthy and/or you're far to lazy to have even the most elementary sense of fashion.

Do yourself a favor, dude. If you can't fit into a 3x, hit the gym and revamp your diet.

To the topic of the shirt, the photo bothers me not-so-much, since this is woot and I've accepted that they seem to be all about the photos on shirts. What's bad is that it just doesn't look all that great. Someone on page one mentioned the colors, and I have to agree; I just don't see how this works well on asphalt.

It's too bad, because I really do love me some bacon.

No, it REALLY isn't...I have about 30 of them and at least half are better than this one. However, the description had me spitting coffee first thing this morning ;)

But if they put it on green, it would look like it was for Christmas. What other color would you suggest...?

Only if you sprinkle the bacon with brown sugar and dance to "Footloose" at the same time.

wow, this is so god-awful i think i will skip the next 6 rounds of random shirts just to make sure i don't get slabbed with a bacon.

They need to have shirts ready to go for the next set of randoms. They'll press 3,000 of these, and sell about 40 total, so in the next batch of randoms, just about every one of us will get one.

How depressing of a thought is that??

Certainly been done before

SCORE!

Wish the name tag was blank though so I could write my own in with a sharpie.

cancellation idea, and also poorly executed. The tag should read "Hello MY NAME IS Kevin".

Here is my daily submission, woot!



I expect my check in mail :P

I may not be a fan of the shirt itself, but I love-love-love that an inside gag amongst the staff was green lit.

Everyone needs to blow off steam once in a while and I salute (or at least offer some form of obeisance to) the powers that be if they don't over-react to this.

I'm not buying one, but then I'd never buy a shirt with a dragon on it either,

/ unless... dragon bacon...

Prince Albert in a Can shirt will be on sale tomorrow....this is so balderah...

How is this an inside gag? *headscratch*

why would u pick such a crappy shirt. i feel sorry for the people who wear it

I'd get this shirt if I wasn't in fear of retaliation by vegetarians or being trampled by a heard of swine

It's a fair question. Honestly, I can't see it working on much else but black, which to me is usually a sign that something else is wrong with the design.

How insensitive of Woot to all of their Jewish customers by offering this Bacon shirt on Yom Kippur of all days.

Shame on Woot!

Tasty

they aren't exactly the same... but the way bacon works is that the slices are cut from a single slab, therefore the grain of the meat is about the same in all the slices.
