AS Colour Staple Tank | 5090

Description

The AS Colour Staple Tank is the sleeveless extension of the 5001 Staple Tee — same 180GSM combed cotton, same preshrunk construction, same print-ready surface. The difference is cut: wider armholes, a relaxed shoulder drop, and a silhouette that reads casual summer apparel rather than gym tank. If you’re running seasonal merch, event giveaways, or brand drops that need to work in warm weather, this is the blank that delivers without feeling like an afterthought.

Who Orders It

Breweries and taprooms run this for summer staff uniforms and festival merch. Fitness studios and yoga brands order it for retail and membership giveaways. Surf and outdoor lifestyle brands use it as a warm-weather staple in their decorated apparel lines. Event producers stock it for summer concert series, outdoor markets, and beach activation programs. Nonprofits order it for volunteer crews working outdoor fundraisers. Screen printers keep it in rotation as a premium upgrade from standard promotional tanks.

Decoration

The 180GSM combed cotton accepts screen print ink with clean saturation and minimal hand-feel change. DTG prints hold well on the tight cotton weave — expect sharp detail on front chest and full back placements. Embroidery works on the upper chest, though placement should account for the relaxed drape of the fabric. The preshrunk construction means your prints stay where you put them through wash cycles. Avoid decoration too close to the armhole seam — the wider cut leaves less printable surface area on the sides than a standard tee.

Common Questions

What decoration method works best on this tank?
Screen printing delivers the cleanest results on the 180GSM cotton surface. DTG works well for detailed or photographic artwork. Embroidery is viable on the upper chest but keep designs compact — the relaxed fit means the fabric moves more than a structured tee.

Is this good for summer event merch?
Yes. The Staple Tank is built for exactly that — festivals, outdoor markets, brewery releases, beach activations. The combed cotton feels premium enough to sell at retail, and the preshrunk construction means consistent sizing across large runs.

How does the sizing run?
True to size with a regular, relaxed fit. The armholes run wider than athletic tanks — this is casual wear, not compression fit. Size up if your buyers prefer a looser drape.
