I have used these tanks for the past two years for tie dyeing. People go crazy over these in the summer. The fit is true, but I actually sell most of these to college girls who are looking for a looser fitting summer tank to wear with Nike shorts or over their swim suits. I have so many of these that I have kept for myself and they truly stand the test of times. After repeated wash and wear they do not lose shape or color and they become softer with each wash.
