Racerbacks: They’re our t-shirts of the summer. Shoulders! We’re totally pro. Honestly, we’re not even sure why we love them so much—all we know is that they say “summer” in a way that regular tank tops just don’t.
For example: This Splendid racerback tank has the nicest back twist we’ve ever seen. (As it should, at $44.) We’re going up a size—which is just as well, since the XS and S are sold out. Distressed tank, $44
This Anthropologie racerback has the nicest back of them all. The Winding Indus tank, $29.95
These are the cheap, basic options, from Urban Outfitters. There’s a tiny pocket beneath her hair, for the record. BDG pocket racerback, two for $30
And then we have two from Madewell that are entirely too expensive but we still, of course, covet them:
Above, the Leeward tank, $48….
And here, the Hardware tank ($52). We’re not entirely sold on the grommets, but we love the burnt-out charcoal color.
