Summer is here. Do you rock a tank top or roll with a t-shirt? Me? I am exclusively a t-shirt guy. I'd feel ridiculous in a tank top.
T-Shirt or Tank Top?
- Thread starter professorchaos
- Start date
depending on the day and where I'm going, either a t-shirt or a sleeveless T. Tanks on occasion. For something more "dressy".... long sleeve button down (sleeves rolled up) with shorts.

Wow, you are fast! I hadn't finished the poll!
poll? what poll?
edit: oh that poll. well, since a Tank & a sleeveless are similar, that's my vote since there's no "both" option.

the sheer girth of my mid section means wear a shirt. and a T shirt it will always be.
polo's, and t-shirts over t-shirts, and light weight button downs.
and of course boat shoes, vans, and vintage vespa's, and summer cocktails!

tank tops aka wife beaters are for under dress shirts not public.

tank tops and wifebeaters are not the same.. tank tops are not for undershirt wear whereas wifebeaters are (and should only be worn as such).
im really glad this has been clarified early on.

Huge +1
My bad, thanks for the clarification.
Looks like I'm in the minority. I'm more of a tank top guy.
T-Shirt, and that is a long sleeve one.

The distinction is lost on me...
I never wear tank tops. I occasionally wear t-shirts, but I'm mostly wearing button shirt.
I would like to add that I hate the term wifebeater.

plain tank tops are (often) thicker material and usually not rib knit; they are intended to be worn alone with nothing under or over them.
wifebeaters aka A-shirts aka vests/singlets (in UK) are thinner material, usually rib knit and intended to be worn with a proper shirt over them (however, "urban" fashion wears them with no over shirt).
T-shirts, t-shirt under a polo, shorts, ball cap, flipflops
T's, usually with something like this on it:
underwear vs. outerwear
I think it's mostly dependent on the fit. I say that because I also have an outerwear tank-top that is the same color and has the same ribbing as the shirt on the left, but it's the same shape as the one on the right. Unless you're a bodybuilder or something, anything form-fitting and all one color is probably intended to be an undershirt.
Whatever you call them, the looser variety is a must for scorching summers (or sports).
