Tidal Tank Top: island surf style with room to move
When the sun is high over Poipu and the water is warm, a sleeve just gets in the way. The Koloa Tidal Tank Top is the Kauai answer: a simple surf tank that keeps your arms free for paddling, climbing the rocks at the point, or carrying a board down the sand.
The name comes from the tides that run every beach day on the island. Surfers plan around them, fishermen read them, and families watch the shoreline move through the afternoon. The Tidal Tank carries that rhythm onto a clean, easy-to-wear tank from Koloa Surf Co., a Kauai surf brand.
Each Koloa shirt is printed by Joe's own crew, so the Tidal design arrives as part of a line made with the island lifestyle in mind. It is a layering piece for cool mornings and a stand-alone tank when the day heats up.
Garment details
- Koloa Surf Classic heavyweight 5.4-ounce, 100% cotton
- 1x1 rib knit collar
- Shoulder-to-shoulder taping
Fit and sizing
The Tidal Tank is a classic tank with a rib knit collar. Open the Koloa size chart to compare your measurements, and choose the size that matches how you like a tank to fall, whether closer to the body for surfing or with a little more room for lounging.
Shoppers who wear big and tall sizes can start from our Big and Tall surf apparel page, which gathers Koloa pieces with extended sizing in one spot.
The 1x1 rib knit collar is made to hold its shape through wear, and the shoulder-to-shoulder taping reinforces the seam across the back of the neck.
How to wear it around the island
Pull it on over board shorts for a morning session, then toss a light shirt over it for a late breakfast on the lanai. It works as a gym tank, a beach day tank, a yard work tank and a vacation tank.
Layer it under an open button-up or a hoodie when the evening breeze comes in. Pair it with Koloa caps from our hat collection for a full island look.
A 5.4-ounce cotton tank is a comfortable middle weight. It is a real shirt, not a throwaway, and it gets softer with regular wear.
Care
Check the care label sewn into the garment and wash it as directed.
