Soviet Triangular Milk T-Shirt

This design reproduces the label from the tetrahedron milk cartons that stocked Soviet dairy cases from the 1950s through the collapse of the USSR. Госагропром СССР (the State Agro-Industrial Committee) standardized the packaging: pasteurized milk, 2.5% fat, 0.5 liter, printed on a triangular wax carton that never quite stood up straight in the fridge and leaked at the corners more often than not.

The pyramid shape was chosen for manufacturing efficiency, not elegance. Millions of Soviet households have a memory of these cartons regardless. Awkward, cheap, and unmistakable.
