Built for the Days When the Swell Is Up
Some mornings on Kauai start with a glance at the ocean and a quick decision. When the waves are running and the trade winds are steady, you want a top that gets out of your way. The Koloa Big Wave Racerback Tank was made with that kind of day in mind, whether you are paddling out at dawn or wandering a farmers market in Kapaa with salt still on your skin.
The racerback cut keeps your shoulders free for paddling, carrying a board, or reaching for a surfboard leash. Pair it with board shorts, a pair of sandals, and a cap, and you have an easy island look that feels like it belongs on the North Shore of Kauai and anywhere else the surf calls you.

Each detail is chosen to keep the tank comfortable through a long day of sun and movement, with a soft, textured feel that holds its shape over time.
Fit and Sizing
The Big Wave Racerback Tank comes in sizes X-Small through 4X-Large, so there is a fit for a wide range of body types. Check the size chart before you choose, since it gives you the measurements you need to compare against your own. If you fall between two sizes, think about how you like your tanks to sit. Sizing up gives a looser, more relaxed drape, while your usual size will feel closer to the body.
How to Wear It
This tank works as a base layer under an open button shirt on cooler evenings, or on its own when the afternoon heats up. Tuck it into a pair of high-waisted shorts for a tidy look, or let the curved hem fall loose over your favorite swim trunks. Add a pair of Koloa Surf Logo Sweatpants for a relaxed post-surf outfit, or pull on a Koloa Wave Tank Top layered underneath for extra coverage on breezy days.
Care
Keep your tank looking its best by following the care label sewn inside the garment. Washing it inside out in cool water and letting it air dry will help protect the colors and the shape of the rib knit. Avoid high heat, which can shrink or fade a blended fabric over time.
