Product Overview
The SOL'S Unisex Crusader Tank Top is a thoughtfully engineered garment designed for those who prioritise sustainability alongside a professional appearance. As the industry moves towards more ethical sourcing, this tank top stands out by utilising 100% organic cotton, or cotton that is currently in-conversion to organic status. This choice of material ensures a soft, natural touch that synthetic alternatives simply cannot replicate, making it an excellent base for high-quality customisation.
Key Features
- 100% Organic Cotton: Sourced through environmentally conscious practices, the fabric is gentle on the skin and ideal for sensitive environments.
- Ribbed Bound Neckline and Armholes: These reinforced edges provide structural stability, ensuring the garment maintains its shape even after a full day of movement.
- Relaxed Fit: The generous cut promotes airflow and ease of motion, which is particularly beneficial in warmer climates or physically active roles.
- Side Seams: Unlike tubular knits, side seams ensure the tank top retains a consistent, tailored fit and prevents the fabric from twisting over time.
- Twin Needle Hem: This double-stitched finish provides a durable edge that resists fraying and unravelling at the base of the garment.
- Tag Free Design: The absence of a traditional brand label at the neck allows for total comfort and makes it perfect for businesses wishing to add their own internal branding.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a standard-weight fabric, the Crusader Tank Top balances breathability with sufficient substance to hold its shape. The 100% organic cotton construction isn't just a nod to environmental responsibility; it also results in a superior surface for decoration. The fibres are cleaner and smoother than traditional cotton, providing a stable canvas for both ink and thread. With certifications ranging from OEKO-TEX Standard 100 to PETA-Approved Vegan status, this garment meets the rigorous standards expected by modern organisations and educational institutions.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, tight weave of this organic cotton makes it an exceptional candidate for customisation. For those seeking a professional and permanent branding solution, embroidery is the preferred choice. Our expert team in Telford can apply detailed logos or staff names that provide a texture and depth that exudes authority. Because the garment has reinforced neck and armholes, it can easily support the weight of a well-executed embroidery design without sagging.
For larger, more vibrant graphics—perhaps for university sports teams or event staff—printing is the ideal alternative. The organic surface absorbs ink beautifully, ensuring that large-scale designs remain sharp and impactful. Every customisation project is handled in-house by our specialists, drawing on decades of experience since our founding in 1976.
Use Cases
This tank top is highly versatile. It is a staple choice for university freshers' weeks, college sports clubs, and summer promotional events where comfort is paramount. In a workplace setting, it serves as a lightweight alternative for hospitality staff working in heated environments or for fitness professionals who require a uniform that allows for a full range of motion. Its unisex fit makes it a practical one-stop solution for diverse teams.

Practical Advice
When ordering for a mixed-gender team, the relaxed fit and unisex cut of this tank top are generally quite forgiving. However, for those who prefer a more structured look, we recommend checking our sizing guides to ensure the 'relaxed' nature of the garment doesn't translate to an oversized appearance. It layers exceptionally well under lightweight jackets or shirts during cooler transitional periods.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and finish of your customised tank top, consistent care is essential. Following the recommended washing temperatures is vital, as excessive heat can cause natural organic fibres to shrink and may distort the precision of any applied embroidery or print work.
We advise avoiding harsh chemical bleaches, as these will break down the organic cotton fibres and cause the colours to fade prematurely. When it comes to drying, air drying is the safest method to preserve the structural integrity of the side seams and the vibrancy of your logo. If ironing is required, please iron on the reverse of any printed areas to avoid damaging the graphic.
