Do I go a size down and risk it being too short or stay with my normal Woot size and risk it being too baggy? I wish you guys would have stuck with American Apparel as they fit my tall, skinny frame quite nicely.

Yea, I'm a little bummed there's no AA option. I would've paid at least $5 (maybe $10) more for an AA hoodie, but I'm guessing we're in the minority.

What are the totes dimensions? Are they only good for a kid trick-or-treating? Or can I use this for shopping?

If they are like the back-to-school batch, than they are lot smaller than grocery store reusable bags (and 10 times the price).

I've still found plenty of uses for my "Bag for Crap".

I sure hope so for those of us that lived under a rock and didn't discover the shirt site until recently.

What no Candy Corn Cannibalism.

- 7.75 ounce
- 50% cotton/50% polyester fleece
- Double-lined hood with matching drawstring at neck
- Made in Honduras

Even though Honduras produces the finest Polyester crop in Central America(the climate and soil is perfect),I wish these hoodies had a higher cotton content. I really do like the idea of Woot having hoodies though.

I think for Christmas we should each be allowed to buy one reckoned shirt of our choice. Who's with me?

trying to order a Nevermore Hoodie but i keep getting "check my postal code error" i'm guessing these are not being shipped to Canada?

i'll have to use my US address if that's the case.

No WXL in Cool Breeze?!? Sold out already? How is that possible already... c'mon Woot!

I subscribe to the "I can always find a way to shrink this thing if I have to" philosophy.

Polyester crop - good one! But yeah, 90/10 or even 80/20 would've been nicer ... and pricier. Wholesale price differences and the added weight (shipping), I would venture to say such would add $7-9 to the costs.

I'm with you, Vik - AA would've been nicer, for the aspect of keeping Americans employed. Alas, many folks are too cheap to care about such aspects also.

My take ... if this is an occasional/trial thing, fine. Just don't mess with the shirts ... the day they aren't USA made is the day I stop buying them. Which explains why even with Threadless' current $10 sale, I still couldn't justify buying any.

That really only works with 100% cotton. Even then, soaking my Cheese shirt in boiling water didn't shrink down much.

Good Question, what is the size of the Halloween Tote? For $10 it better be a farely good size.
The Halloween bags at Old Navy are $1 but they are small. So if this one is 10 times the price of Old Navy and isn't much bigger, I will be bummed.

I really wish the Raven was available in a tote bag form!

Please bring back Ding Dong The Witch is Dead! PERFECT pick for Shirtoberfest if I do say so myself!

Please bring back "Faster, Higher, Stronger, Aimier"

The poly blend actually made the hoodies much softer, and they won't shrink like 100% cotton. I think the material is of very good quality, and I'm quite picky about these things. I'm a 100% real fiber kind of girl, for most everything, but I really love these.

The hoodie sizes are more traditional. I wear a WM in real life, and a WXL in Woot sizes. For these hoodies, the M fit me perfectly, but I could rock the S if I wanted a snug hipster brunch look.

Now I know exactly what size to get! Thanks Prof!

It's a shame that these don't seem to go abroad
The '$5 international shipping' options shows as only option for me, but I don't see a country dropdown..

Having an issue ordering the Foxfall sweatshirt - apparently my postal code doesn't work? (London Ontario, N6H 4L2)

Really excited to get some of these shirts - hope the issue is fixed soon!

Seems like a great phrase for a country tune! Can you sing?

Aww. I would have jumped at the chance to pick up Nevermore or Cool Breeze in a tote bag.

Don't really want to spend the extra $5 for shipping so I wonder if this would get to New England by the 29th.

The problem with the first "Nevermore" is that the black on gray was too difficult to read. Even though a Raven is black, I'm glad they made it white and put it on a black background. While it is extremely abbreviated, the artist did a good job at getting the main point across.

I would buy the cool breeze hoodie in a heartbeat. But its not a hoodie.

Sad day.

I can't justify buying the fractal tree one... because its not a true fractal, and therefore, is a lie. I could possibly live with myself if I wore a lie everyday.

What I would love to see is a desk calendar -- a shirt.woot image a day!

October shirts are my favourite. I would really love to see regular long sleeved shirts, not just hoodies.

I would also love to see the shirt with the pumpkins carving up the kid and saying "save the guts" come back around. I bought this in a guy's size and it's just too huge for me to ever wear, especially cause I lost some weight. I'd definitely buy a smaller size if it reprinted.

Thanks for rolling some favourites back out, Woot.

I wish there were more year round options in the hoodies, some of the classics like apathy coalition

Nirvana! My quest for "Zombie Candycorn" has been completed! In for 2!!!

Dang, I really can't afford this right now, Woot. But I reeeeaaaally want the Fractal hoodie and Cool Breeze, and I must add to my Nevermore collection! /o\

Pricing is awesome, tho. Better than the $47 I paid for a hoodie on another site. x.x

Why are the hoodies only going to 2XL? I've got like 50 3XL Woots and would like a shot at hoodies too!!!!!

From what they said about sizing, I would think that a 2XL hoodie is comparable in size to a 3XL woot shirt. The woot shirts run slim, and the hoodies are standard fit. Hope that helps.

Wishing there were more hoodie options... would buy Cool Breeze and Zombie Candycorn in a heartbeat after Jimmy!

I hate the American Apparel shirts, which I guess is just as well, since if I liked them I'd spend way too much on Woot! shirts. I wish they were a heavier weight cotton.

That said, I was kind of psyched to see you offering sweatshirts. But, ugh. 50/50 makes me sad. I'd gladly pay extra for a higher cotton content.

OK, you have convinced me to get one to give it a try. Hopefully, it will be comfy and will wear well and not be icky like most of the 50/50 sweatshirts I have ever had.

Ummm stupid question maybe, but will you also offer the hoodie/tote designs as shirts eventually? I reeeeeeeaaaaaally want that Posthumous Pale Ale Tshirt, it would fit nicely with my JovobeniNoir shirt.

Hooray for hoodies! I for one am very happy for the pullover style. Zip-up hoodies always give me the dreaded zipper ripple. I also prefer the hoodie hand pouch in the pullover style, as opposed to segregated hand pockets.

One question though, when is the cutoff for ordering, I am coming into some money on the 14th and would love to order then rather than by the 13th.
