Shirt.Woot

Thanks for making it green, I love it.
It's treerific...sorry, couldn't stop myself.
I'm buying two!

Yay! Arriba Kevin!!

Congrats my friend! Awesome print!

I'm happier there is at least one less big box store.

Great design, Kev. Congrats! I'm in for one.

For those who were wondering about the green question, the best information I could find was that one study said you need to read about 40 books a year for your e-reader to be "greener" than print books. Another study said about 23 books would be sufficient. Obviously, it's hard to measure precisely. Use solar power and keep the e-reader for a few years, though, and you'd definitely come out on top. And fwiw, Sierra Club endorses the public library as the greenest way to read.

Green? No no no. The selfish trees just don't want you to cut them down.

For what it's worth...

The vast majority of paper used in the production of books, magazines, newspapers, etc. is purchased from paper mills that manage and harvest their own forests, replanting as they harvest. They are not deforesting. The trees are a crop. We might as well talk about saving corn while we're at it.

In fact, the purchase of paper products actually promotes responsible forrest management. If there is no need for this crop, the land will be turned over for more profitable development.

If anything, try to look for the FSC logo when buying paper products (or any forest products for that matter).

Still a cute design.

Congrats on the print Kevlar, awesome design! I may even be able to convince my fiancee to buy one.

I love this shirt! Great design. One on the way for me and my Kindle...

I really want to like/share it on Facebook...but when I tried, it shows yesterday's shirt instead of today's.... *sigh*

Titles in his Kindle:

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn

Roots

The Lexus and the Olive Tree

Heart of Oak

Complete Works of Nathaniel Hawthorne

Angela's Ashes

Family Tree

I love the design on this shirt but I look TERRIBLE in green so I am not buying it.

If I could buy the design in a poster, or get the design on a different color shirt I would get it.

solar--what do you think trees use for energy?

Sizing help! Wanting to purchase this shirt. Was given a shirt from Woot! ..and the sizing tag just shows L ...is that kids Large, or women's large? From looking at sizing..seems like kids.. but wouldn't think that would be right. If anyone can help..I sure would appreciate it. Thx!

Perfect shirt for Earth Day.

The irony is that kindles and similar computer products probably do more destruction chemically to nature than a paperback... but who knows... maybe im wrong. It's a cool design!

They may have changed shirt providers since then too, so no one can really answer that at all. If you like the fit of the shirt measure it and try to match that to the sizing chart. The new blanks seem to shrink length wise not width wise and are bigger overall, so keep that in mind.

Debut day: 1188, all on imported Anvil blanks.

1189 is correct, if it helps with your stats

Congratulations. Tree just looks wise enough to want a little peace + quiet to read in.

You ask, the side sale answers. http://shirt.woot.com/friends.aspx?k=save-the-trees-recycled-tee

What color is the "recycle" shirt supposed to be? It looks like the smog is settling in. Rather gloomy for a positive message design.

Four days and no Tracking Number, hope it's not lost in the mail.
