That said, some of that "greenness" has since been offset by the transportation aspect. If Woot really wanted to make a statement, printing on SOS from Texas would've made the most sense.

I know they cost more, but it's not really worth it (in my opinion at least) since they're Anvil blanks. If they were organic AA blanks, I think they would sell much better.

Excited by the organic/recycled options, however still sad that they're Anvil given the fit/sizing issues. I'll have to think about this one....

Congrats to all! Glad to see Time-Lapse print, it looks amazing!

Have the totes gotten any bigger in this and the last few offerings? I bought a Raven tote last year or so, and while I love it, it is bit small to use as part of a grocery bag trip.

But yeah, very sad not to get Mr. Bear on a regular tee. It's already reaching triple digits in the south. No need for long sleeves. Ever. @_@

You live in the wrong place! It's still snowing in Minnesota.

Congrats Jasneko for being The Sierra Club’s Winning Pick.

Q: Why isn't The Sierra Club promoting these products on their website or Facebook page?

Hmm we'd have to cut the necks and the bottoms as well I think. Then we could look like we came out of the 80's.

Maybe it's a shirt color issue like there's no Organic tee in that brown color. I'd take it on a recycled tee Woot! That brown doesn't seem that different. Commmmmmeeee onnnn. Begs.

Here here. Congrats Jasneko!

Congrats jas'! I can see why TSC chose your design.

Thanks lucky, and thanks Shirt.Woot for the editor's pick on Time-Lapse. I entered it in the dying moments of the Open Spaces derby and never expected it to become a tee. I can't wait to see how it looks printed!

It's a big print but with a lot of details. Here's a nice BIG VERSION for anyone that missed seeing it up close last week. :^)

True, but I'm fairly certain God doesn't outsource prayer intercession to Satan.

OUTRAGEOUS!!!

Congrats Jas, SG and JW! And thanks for letting me in on the party Woot!

Congrats to all the chosen, Jasneko, Spiritgreen and Jeweling. I'm glad SW chose Time Lapse :D Loved that design!

It's just an analogy.

I'm glad you didn't listen to me.

So glad that "Watch It Grow" (http://shirt.woot.com/friends.aspx?k=watch-it-grow-recycled-tee) is back for a bit!! I was just noticing this weekend that my shirt is getting a bit worn around the edges. It's one of my faves and I must be wearing it at least once a month.

Hahaha, stubborness wins out this time.

Why are these not offered in kid sizes??

Thanks for the congrats! I am extremely honored to be Sierra Club's pick - I've admired them for quite some time and am so happy the design was chosen as a representative of their efforts
Congrats to the other picks and prints too!

caricarpenter wrote:Why are these not offered in kid sizes??

I noticed this too. I'm trying to order Playful Foxes in the recycled tee. The individual sizing chart on its page said it's from Honduras (Anvil), so I would need a men's medium for my sister. However, when I went to the order page, there was no distinction between men and women's sizes. (Also no kids sizes at all?)

So does anyone know what the truth is?

Ok, Woot dudes....

You know I love you. I think you are all very smart (sexy-smart!) dudes. (And dudettes.) I respect you and hold you in the utmost regard, sing your praises to those who will listen, and have done all of the above for many years now.

This happens EVERY time you offer up one of these special events, however.

Really,

WHO THE $%#&@* IS THE MARKETING "GENIUS" WHO CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT TO PUT THE BOOK/READING-THEMED DESIGNS ON FREAKING TOTES??!!!!!!!

Books....totes....books.....totes....books....totes....books....totes....

Is it really so hard to catch on and see the connection there???

Seriously.

They go together, like yabba-dabba-jabba-nabba.....

I would soooooooooooooooooooooooo buy the "Save the Trees" design on a BOOK TOTE.

1. It means so much more that way---sorta ironic in this case, in fact.
2. Totes get seen by more people. A t-shirt gets worn every once in awhile...and if you have several great ones, well then....you know, it's not like you can change every 10 minutes or wear them all at once.

Okay....I'm done ranting now....but someone is being stupid.
*in my best Ney'tiri voice with a very good Na'vi accent*: "stupid...stupid like a child!!!"

(Please note that the above was typed with love and affection. Sorta the way one loves a stupid little brother.) ;-)

Oops...ignore this double post, please.

Have plans yet to read Asimov's Foundation trilogy? I highly recommend.

LOL!

Based on the Anvil page for their recycled tees, they only come in mens sizes.

Yay! I was also happy to see your design was picked since I always think you should get printed more often.

I don't know... It could explain a few things. ;)

Yes, planning on it! I'm actually in the middle of The Thrawn Trilogy right now, but the Foundation trilogy is next on my to read list!

My favorite Asimov short story is available in its entirely online. Bookmark this site or go ahead and print it out: http://www.multivax.com/last_question.html
See if you can squeeze it in somewhere.

phoenixgirrl wrote:well, I guess that is the color. Anvil's Recycled Green really doesn't look green to me at all. Their Eco Green would've been better.

I didn't like the green here either, but I like the lighter version on the Anvil website. If it's the latter, I'll probably buy one. I can't be parted from my Kindle, so this would be a great print for me.

Anyone on staff know about the apparent color difference between your mock-up and the Anvil photo?

THIS!

Sooo totally agree.......books and totes are like peanut butter and chocolate >>>>> put them together, please!!

tgentry wrote:I think it's somewhere in between. Looking at the sample here it doesn't seem quite as light as in the photo, but also not quite as dark as the sample color we put it on. It's fairly close to both, so probably somewhere in the middle.

I really love the color and feel, in fact it's one of my favorite products we've run. It's got a very slight heathered texture to it, but not to the degree of an actual heathered shirt. It just has a nice earthiness to it which I like. I'm hoping to run more on these recycled tees, and in other colors, as I can personally see myself wearing them often and they have a really nice, muted color tone to them which makes a design like Playful Foxes really stand out.

Thank you for the detailed reply! I'll give it a try.

But aren't these only in Men's sizes?

Everyone keeps complaining that the Republicans or Democrats have started a war on women...but it sounds like woot in the one who has really started the war on women!

P.S. I will retract my statement if you start making prints available for women on tank tops :D

(p.p.s. do all the previous side sales in tanks, and you'll liquidate my most recent bonus :D)

True! Jas' designs don't get the votes often enough, but when they print they're always popular. Their simplicity and charm definitely resonate with people's wallets. :^)

Congrats to you too Spiritgreen & to Jewelwing for the EC's!

Edit: And to Koma!

I really love Spiritgreen's Time-Lapse and was very happy to see it get an Editor's Choice. Alas, after much debate with myself, I've concluded that $17 (+ shipping) is a little too much for me to pay for a t-shirt in colour that hates me. However, I do hope it does very well in sales.

I hope all them do very well. A great selection of designs.

The Special Metallic Ink for Saving the World, One Small Step at a Time convinced me to buy one.

Bought one at 2x.

So the women's organic cotton shirts are the size of those baggy Anvil shirts? Please say it isn't so. I have two tiny female friends that want my Gummistone shirt. So basically if they normally wear WS, I shouldn't even bother? Especially since really they could wear an XS if they sold them. I remember seeing some samples of the Anvil women's tees but never really kept up with whether they kept those or got something else. I just remember covering my eyes in horror. Any help would be appreciated.
