Ranch Dressing Recipe Shirt | TSA Safe Vintage Tee
This shirt looks like a recipe card for homemade ranch dressing — creased, typed, a little worn at the edges. It's garment-dyed for a broken-in feel from day one, and pre-shrunk to hold that fit wash after wash. Each color prints in black or white ink, whichever gives the sharpest contrast.
The name's a joke about flying with liquids. TSA can confiscate your ranch dressing at security — but not if it's printed on a shirt instead. Good gift for ranch fans and vintage-recipe collectors, and a genuinely American souvenir for anyone visiting from out of town.
Fabric & fit: Comfort Colors 1717 blank. 100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed, tubular knit with double-needle stitching. Relaxed unisex fit, true to size — size up for oversized.
