Racerback Tank Tops for Plus Size
From LoveToKnow Plussize
Racerback tank tops for plus size women are great athletic apparel for full-figured gals interested in pursuing some healthy activity. While it’s wise to shop for tank tops with built-in bras that will provide support while you’re working out, you can also find racerback tops for more casual purposes like hanging out.
About Racerback Tanks
One thing you won’t have to worry about with racerback tank tops for plus size women is the annoying problem of straps constantly falling off your shoulders. Racerback tanks are specifically designed to avoid this issue. Instead of straps sitting squarely on your shoulders that run the risk of slipping down, racerback straps converge in the back between your shoulder blades. Not only does this design eliminate a problem, it also shows off sculpted shoulders and blades as well, perfect for the athletically inclined woman who’s proud of all her upper body work. If you think curvy ladies can’t fit into this category, think again. It is possible to be healthy and plus size, so long as you combine regular aerobic activity with nutritionally sound eating habits.
If you’re searching for racerback tanks for exercise, most of them come in easy-to-care-for materials that are workout-friendly, such as nylon, spandex and cotton. Most likely, you’ll find a combination of these materials so that you can stay cool while exercising and also have adequate support.
Buying Racerback Tank Tops for Plus Size Women
Whether you plan to wear your racerback tank around the track, on the bike path or while spinning at the gym, you’ll find a variety of colors that will complement the rest of your workout gear. While black is always a popular (and slimming!) choice for exercise apparel, you can also buy bright colors such as turquoise and white to add a fashionable punch when working out.
Look to these retailers who provide plus size women comfortable exercise gear, including racerback tops:
- Always for Me: This online shop carries an assortment of swimwear, lingerie and active clothing for busy, full-figured gals. A Danskin racerback tank is available in sizes 1X to 4X and comes in black or white. You can pair it with yoga pants, bike shorts or even a tennis skirt.
- Danskin: You can buy directly from the Danskin site and choose a racerback top in white, black or navy. You also have the option to buy a racerback bra whose straps won’t be obvious under your tank if you need extra support. At this site, you have the option to read users’ reviews to see how other buyers rate the apparel and you can add a review of your own to help future consumers.
- River’s Edge Dancewear: If you don’t want a skintight top, but prefer more loose-fitting garments, the racerback tank top from this company offers that as well as a large selection of colors. For the plus size woman who likes her workout gear bright and colorful, you’ll find more than two dozen choices in sizes 1X to 3X.
- Team Estrogen: If blending in isn’t your thing, then check out the racerback tanks from this retailer. Cute and colorful frogs or preppy Argyle prints adorn tops available in XXL.
- Roaman’s: If you’re looking for a tank that’s less athletic, but still casual, you can find one here. The knit tank is available in sizes up to 5X and can be worn with skirts or jeans. If you wear this type of tank top for just lounging around, make sure to wear a convertible or racerback bra underneath so that the straps don’t stick out in an obvious way.
