Shirt.Woot

Hilarious write-up!!
And, Hats off (or any other piece of clothing desired) to the artist for bringing one of my favorite expressions to life!!!

Damn! I was really hoping this shirt would get picked: http://shirt.woot.com/derby/entry/66858/beware-a-mask-on-halloween

This shirt is perfect for those who have Pocket Protector and Marsupial in my Pocket already.

Omens, Monsters, and Goblins!! the cuteness... THE CUTENESS!! *dies*

It's a good thing my husband doesn't look good in red. That means this shirt is MINE and I can wear it when he wears his pocket koala :D

Oh he's so cute! I could just give him a little scratch right between those adorable little ear - ARGH! MY FINGERS!

Wait, a pocket monster...Hah! It's a pokemon.

Yay! I had my fingers crossed for this one! Buying now...

What you don't see is that the critter is nothing but teeth below those cute, little eyes.

Congrats Jewelwing!

Well, after reading the writeup, nice bulge is probably inappropriate, but impressive how jewelwing managed to get a sense of weight and creature presence into the design.

Sorry adorable little Koala it looks like you just been replaced by an equally if not more cuter pocket monster to place in my pocket. While we are at it lets color the shirt different and change the pocket position... there now that's better! Welcome home my new pet we will be together forev-- is that a robot!?

I love that monster! So happy this one printed, Jewelwing!

"what it's got in its nassty little pocketses?"

What's not shown: The large entry hole he made through the back of the shirt. ;)

Totally makes my weekend seeing this up here. The write up is pretty awesome.
Thanks for the pick tgentry and to everyone who voted for it! Hope you all enjoy your shirts.

Congrats Jewelwing! Great shirt!

Can you wear this shirt after midnight?

MOGWAI! MOGWAIIIIII!!!!!!!

An excellent choice. Soon woot should do a 'stuff in the shirt pocket' themed side-sale.

How did Travis Gentry become a 'guest editor'? Shouldn't his role in the choosing of winners be filled in the "we at woot choose the second-place winner" slot? I think this week we had "we choose the second-place winner" followed by "we at woot also choose the third-place winner".

Congrats to the artists (and the pocket shading and sense of depth on today's is really awesome), but while all good this week's winners just aren't to my tastes for various reasons and I'm really disappointed not to see Daydream or Beware a Mask make it. I thought those two were amazing and really stood out.

Oh well. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a second chance derby or side sale.

Congrats jewelwing! It's awesome!

Cool shirt... can we have it in a different color sometime?

Perfect for a kids' shirt! My son would love it, and it's available in kids sizes, too!

:D

I'm hoping it comes back in primaries and green.

Serious question, is it really a pocket? Or just a rendering of one.

Such a cute shirt! I'd love it in green, not too fond of red. I might have to get one anyway...hope it's not just for kids.

They have enough trouble getting a neck in the right size on these shirts!

-artist's rendering of a pocket.

I shall dissent and say I am not a fan.

Agreed, not my style, but it's a creative design!

who votes for this junk?

I would have bought 2 for my kids, but since Woot abandoned American workers and went with lower quality shirts I have not bought anything here, nore will I ever.

Since I spent waaaay too much in the woot-off last week, I had told myself I wasn't gonna buy anything else for awhile, but when I voted for this shirt in the derby, I also told myself that if this shirt was picked, I had to get it. Finally made up my mind and bought it with 2 minutes to spare!

I just got mine in the mail, and to my disappointment, where there are supposed to be dark shadows in the image, there are red blotches. I don't know if this is a consequence of printing on a red shirt, or if it's just ugly printing, but it looks bad compared to the preview image that I ordered. I've emailed Woot to see if this is a normal issue and am waiting for a response, so I'll update when that comes in. It's a shame too, I REALLY love this shirt design

*EDIT*
Within 3 days of contacting customer service, I had a new shirt The shading is still a bit red and blotchy, but it is an improvement over the first print. I guess that's just the price for printing on a red shirt? Either way, I still love the design. I just wish it would look a little cleaner. Kudos to Woot customer service for providing an excellent, speedy resolution!

IGNORE MY RANT BELOW:
I'M A NINCOMPOOP WHO BOUGHT A WOMEN'S LARGE BY ACCIDENT!

Original rant:
Why is my large "Shy Pocket Monster" (made in Hondurus) so small?

Compared to my "Secret Ninja" from last week (made in Nicaragua) it's a good 3 inches shorter in the sleeves and body.

And, the monster graphic is way too high for a real pocket. The faux pocket bottom starts above my nipple!

(Dudes... what's up with the screwed-up sizing difference?!? I'd say it's a boys, but there's now way I could fit into it if that were true. I can't wear this!)
