Tank Top Tech Pack Template

A tank top tech pack is defined by what has been cut away. Strap width, armhole drop and the finished widths of the neck and armhole bindings do all the work here — rows that exist on no sleeved garment — with the body block graded XS to XXL with tolerances.

Strap width, armhole drop and binding widths — a tank is defined by what is cut away.

Commissioning a tank top spec from a technical designer typically runs €150 to €900 and takes days. This one was drawn inside a Portuguese factory that cuts the garment every week, and it is in your inbox in minutes.

Why this one is different

Tank Top, specified

A tank is defined by what has been cut away. Strap width, armhole drop and the width of the neck and armhole bindings do all the work, and none of them exist on any other garment in the set. Miss them and you get a vest that is technically the right chest measurement and completely the wrong garment.

Because there is no sleeve, the sleeve rows are gone entirely — the document is shorter and every remaining row matters more.

The binding group — neck trim, armhole trim and strap width — which no sleeved pack in the set carries.

Body
Neck trim
Armhole trims

Silhouette

Sleeveless. Narrower through the chest than the tee, with bound neck and armholes.

Fabric on the spec

180gsm Jersey — a starting point on the material page, written to be overwritten with your own.

Points of measure

Every row in the pack

All 8 of them, with the convention each is measured to. 5 are marked as measurements a factory cannot cut without — they print in bold on the page. The values themselves are inside the document, graded XS–XXL with tolerances; we do not publish them here.

Measurements in this pack are drafted from published industry sizing (EN 13402-3 body girths; Craft Yarn Council body lengths) with standard ease for the stated fit class. They are a production-ready standard block, not White Cotton house measurements. Confirm the graded spec against your own fit sample before bulk production.

FAQ

Before you buy

Why is armhole drop listed twice?+

Because a tank uses it twice: once as the body armhole and once as the finished drop after binding. Both are on the page, measured to their own convention, so a factory is not left choosing which one you meant.

Does it specify the binding construction?+

The neck and armhole trims appear in the component list, on the inside-construction page with their seams named, and as finished widths in the points of measure.

What do I actually receive?+

A vector PDF and an .ai file, by email, immediately after payment. Both open and edit in Illustrator, Affinity or CorelDRAW — nothing is flattened or locked.

Can I use it with any factory?+

Yes. The document is yours and carries no supplier details — no address, no contact, nothing that ties it to us. It is drawn to industry convention so any factory can read it.

Are the measurements already filled in?+

Yes, as a production-ready standard block graded XS–XXL with tolerances, drawn from published industry sizing. It is a starting point you overwrite to match your own fit sample — the pack says so on the page. Your own fields (brand, style code, season, colourway names, artwork) arrive marked [FILL IN] in red so nothing ships carrying someone else's data.
