The Santa Fe Trail Transportation Co. (SFTT) is an often overlooked but important chapter in the history of the Santa Fe Railway. By the 1920s, trucking companies had begun siphoning off less-than-carload (LCL) freight that had once been dominated by rail. While limited road infrastructure initially slowed that shift, the rapid expansion of highways in the 1930s made trucking a serious competitor to railroads like the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe (AT&SF). To stay competitive, AT&SF launched SFTT as a wholly owned trucking subsidiary, fully integrated with its rail network to provide seamless, end-to-end intermodal service. SFTT operated for decades before being sold in 1984 amid a downturn in the economy. This design is based on the company’s distinctive, forward-looking logo redesign from the late 1970s.
Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch, making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.
