CTT Oil Exploration And Cattle Retro Funny Shirt

Welcome to the boardroom of the 1980s, where the steaks are rare, the oil is crude, and the business model is “dig it up or fence it in.” The “CTT Oil Exploration And Cattle” shirt is a satirical nod to the golden age of oddly specific regional conglomerates. It mimics the aesthetic of those promotional trucker hats and work shirts handed out by companies that dominated the Texas landscape decades ago.

The design features a vintage-style logo that feels authentically corporate yet absurdly specific. Combining “Oil Exploration” with “Cattle” suggests a business that is maximizing profit from every square inch of dirt, regardless of the environmental consequences. It captures the vibe of a fictional antagonist corporation from a primetime soap opera or a neo-western drama. It’s subtle enough to pass as a genuine vintage find, but funny enough to make people pause and ask, “Wait, is that a real company?”

Printed on a sturdy, rough-and-tumble cotton tee, this shirt is designed to look like it survived a few decades in the back of a pickup truck. It’s perfect for the person who loves the aesthetic of industrial Americana but wants to wear it with a wink of irony. Whether you are closing a deal, grilling a burger, or just mocking the military-industrial-ranching complex, this shirt means business.

What kind of shirt is it printed on? We use a Gildan Heavy Cotton tee. It has a classic, boxy fit—not too slim, not too baggy—reminiscent of the standard promotional t-shirts used by companies in the past.
