GOOD SHIRTS. QUESTIONABLE DIRECTIONS.
Take the
scenic
route.
America put Fertile, Climax, and Hooker on the map. We put them on shirts. Behaving was never part of the itinerary.
We opened Route 69 Wearhouse instead.
Real towns. Fictional businesses. Excellent shirts.
$30 · XS–3XL · Shipping extra.
VINTAGE SPIRIT. SMALL-TOWN HUMOR.
PLEASE DRESS ACCORDINGLY.
WELCOME TO THE WEARHOUSE.
America named the towns.
We gave them something to wear.
No, we’re not helping.
Real towns. Imaginary establishments. Very real conversation starters. Pick a vintage-inspired white tee, meet the local legend, and practice explaining it at Thanksgiving.
The towns are real. The businesses are fictional. You’re buying the shirt, although we appreciate your interest in joining the union.
Why only white tees? The town names already supply the color. Someone around here ought to look innocent.
$30 in every size, XS–3XL. Shipping extra. Explanations sold separately.
Pick your next wrong turn ↗SMALL TOWNS. COAST-TO-COAST POSSIBILITIES.
Find your next wrong turn.
Start with the whole country. Pick a dot.
Zoom in, meet the town, and explore its collection.
● Featured towns · Zoom to separate nearby dots · Alaska and Hawaii shown in insets
Your next stop starts here.
Choose a dot or a town name to take a closer look. The places are real. The businesses are gloriously fictional.

One tee. A whole backstory.
This week’s local establishment.
The official story. According to absolutely nobody.
THIS WEEK’S FEATURE
Fertile Fraternity of Builders
The local builders take enormous pride in their work. The slogan committee may have taken liberties.
The builders agreed good work starts with a solid foundation. The slogan committee preferred to focus on the nailing. The ribbon-cutting ceremony was brief. The jokes were structural.
NO BUILDING PERMIT REQUIRED.

FertileMinnesota
A real stop in Minnesota. A fictional business community with plenty to say.
Dear road-tripper, business is growing. Our fictional builders keep expanding, the pipe layers stay booked, and nobody can explain the ice cream slogan at a family reunion. Wish you were here. Bring a straight face.

MoorheadMinnesota
A real stop in Minnesota. A fictional business community with plenty to say.

A real stop in North Dakota. A fictional business community with plenty to say.

FaulktonSouth Dakota
A real stop in South Dakota. A fictional business community with plenty to say.
Dear road-tripper, we took a wrong turn and found a whole Faulkton of stories. Our imaginary slogan committee voted to keep that phrase. The proofreader requested a personal day.

A real stop in Wisconsin. A fictional business community with plenty to say.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF SOUVENIR
Real places.
Unreal
punchlines.
Some town names do half the writing for you. We take it from there.

Start in Fertile, Minnesota. Pick your profession. Let everyone else figure out the punchline.
Meet the local businesses ↗GOT A PLACE WE NEED TO SEE?
