I didn't know they were still doing this.

Aristarchus, woot is just a modified version on woo+, which is an onomatopoeia (in the urban dictionary) for a commonly heard cheer. I'm sure you've heard it before.

the one on my Liberty Nor Safety isn't the traditional white imprint. It looks good but not shiny gold foil. Anyone else come across this with their Liberty Nor Safety tee?

kiLLyou on Jun 11 '07 at 3:10pm
My Liberty Nor Safety has a khaki colour print for the threadless tag.

And a free shirt would be snazzy too.

Aristarchus on Jun 12 '07 at 12:25am
The gold tag I got for Keeping It Real had a different design from the usual tag. When I got my Defend The Kingdom, it had the same style of tag, but alas it was printed in khaki. So yeah... There may be something weird going on with the tags.

It should be that all tags are golden and you have to find the normal tag.
