Tri-Blend Racerback tank by American Apparel, TR308 and retails at $19. Expensive in my opinion. You can get one for cheaper at the American Apparel warehouse store in downtown LA or make something like it yourself from old soft shirts. I have the one shown above, but salvaged the one I'm wearing below from an old shirt. I'm on the left.
It's pretty simple. Cut off all hems: sleeves, bottom, neck. Cut lower on neckline and the back into a slight racerback form as shown below.
Simple, right? Remember, the material has to be thinner. Don't use a Hanes Beefy-T that you got for free at a charity walk-a-thon. Tri-blend obviously works great, but so does 100% cotton if sheer or worn in. For those who don't know, tri-blend is typically a cotton, poly, and rayon blend that gives a shirt the whole vintage look and feel. I wear my loose tanks with a Calvin Klein bralette.
