Classic 80s Mesh USA Tank
A classic 80s style gym class reversible tank top (print only on the blue side, though), with an expertly applied and cured screen print. Printed with pride and gratitude in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
So what went into this?
Our illustrators and designers create the artwork
Art techs convert the art into component screens (which were made of silk in the old days, hence "screen printing" or "silk screening")
Skilled screen printers and their apprentices apply ink through the screens. We use top of the line M&R carousel presses manufactured in Illinois
Our warehouse team checks quality, bags, and boxes the apparel for fulfillment centers across the country
Where is my shirt made?
When you buy one of our shirts, your money is flying all around the country. The percentages vary between products as input prices fluctuate (and a small percent of our catalogue is fully imported), but for the most part, it looks something like this:
- Ann Arbor, MI - Design, Printing, & Production- 35%
- Seattle, WA - Advertising & Platform Fees - 22%
- Cincinnati, OH - Apparel Distributor - 6%
- Atlanta, GA - Logistics - 4%
- Roselle, IL - Printing Presses & Equipment - 4%
- Texas & Southwest US - Cotton Farming - 4%
- Toluca, Mexico - Fabric Sewing - 3%
- Pineville, NC - Screen Printing Inks - 1%
Screen printing is like cooking: it's not rocket science, but it's really easy to screw up if you cut corners or use sub-par ingredients. That's why we...
Hire, train, and retain skilled professionals
We have internal apprentice and educational programs that result in screen printing professionals with a thorough understanding of how ink chemistry, curing heats, and apparel fibers all interplay. Getting the combinations wrong can result in crooked prints, faded inks, or scratchy shirt fabric.
Use top notch inks
We pay a bit more for top shelf inks because they are worth it! QCM inks are better for the environment (one of the first ink companies to go phthalate free), more vibrant, and last longer than the cheap stuff.
Invest in the best equipment
Our screen printing presses and support equipment are engineered and manufactured by M&R in Roselle, Illinois. Having the best tools allow our printers to move faster with less waste, allowing us to create high quality products at a lower cost, which we pass to you!

The letters cracked after 1 wash. Definitely not the quality I expected. Tank top fit well otherwise.

I am 6' 150 pounds, slim athletic physique. I didn't know if I should order a small or medium. I ordered a small, and glad I did. It fits almost exactly like a medium sized jersey I own that is the same reversible mesh style and construction, but different brand (sport-tek). This jersey is actually a little bit of a wider fit, but the same length as my other one. Any more wider and it would be baggier than I would prefer. This still has a nice relaxed fit, and I was concerned the small would be too slim fitting. This is not at all the case. The shoulder strap parts are also wider than my other jersey, which adds to the boxy look. I highly suspect I would have been exchanging a medium for a small. This jersey is not as heavyweight as my other one, but the lighter weight will be nice for the hot summer. I don't love the already cracked graphic as these jerseys tend to naturally crack after a few washes, and normal wear (especially sweating in them) so this just kind of exacerbates that. We'll see how it holds up. The stitching is okay, but not amazing. It's sewn together in the same areas as my nicer one. One area of the shoulder strap there is a decent amount of exposed white jersey. Seems like the alignment of the stitching is off about 1/4 an inch in one part of the shoulder area so both shoulders are certainly not quite symmetrical. Definitely not as clean looking as my other jersey, or as good fitting as I would prefer, and definitely not as high quality. But who else is making USA reversible mesh jersey's that you don't have customize yourself? Take what you can get I guess

I ordered this for my husband and he loves it! Although we should have ordered a size down because it fits a little large. He goes between a Large and XL most of the time so we ordered and XL and it kind of swallows him. So if you are between sizes, order a size down. Otherwise, super soft and super patriotic. Love it!

This tank is exactly how it is described in the listing. It fits nicely and looks pretty cool, but if you reverse it and wear the white side out then you have the letters ASU on your chest instead of USA which is a shame because the white side looks great. I purchased this tank to wear on the 4th of July but because I like it I think this will be a daily wear. I purchased an XXL and it fits like an XXL. Quality seems like it's there but only time and multiple washings will tell but i'm not worried.

Wayyyy too big!! I'm 6'0, 195 athletic build, and this is huge on me. Definitely order a size smaller. Unfortunately I got mine today, so no time to get a new one by tomorrow

This tank is great and I got it just in time for July 4th! Watch out for the sizing though! I'm normally a medium shirt size so I ordered a medium and it was HUGE on me. I returned the product and ordered a small. Even though the small fits better it still is a bit big. (Or maybe I am losing weight which is also good) All and all this is a great product and it is made of good quality jersey mesh. Add this to your 'merica wardrobe.
