A Design That Only Reveals Itself at Two Meters

This Viking tank top plays with restraint: a large grey Vegvísir in the center of the chest, framed by two ravens with folded wings, all printed in shades of grey on a deep black. At five meters, you see a black tank top; at two, everything appears. Find it in our collection of Viking tank tops.

Its exact opposite is the red and gold horned warrior, made to be seen.


What Sets This Tank Top Apart

Printing grey on black is a difficult choice: the contrast is low, and that is exactly the desired effect.

  • Three shades of grey: the light symbol, the medium ravens, the almost black border. The design reveals itself in stages.
  • The most discreet in the section: the one best worn outside the gym, without having to explain its design.
  • A centered composition: the runic disc occupies the middle of the chest, a framing that remains stable regardless of movement.
  • Nine sizes: from S to 6XL.

For the same symbol treated in gold and much more visible, see the gold Vegvísir.

Did you know?

Although the Vegvísir is associated with navigation, no source connects it to the sea. The note that accompanies it in the Huld manuscript speaks of a man who will not lose his way "in storms and bad weather, even if the path is unknown to him" — a terrestrial formula, intended for a traveler caught in an Icelandic blizzard much more than for a sailor. The association with drakkar ships is a 20th-century interpretation, added much later.

Which tank top to choose?

TypeWhat it looks likeWhen to choose it
All-over print, black and white this productThe design covers the whole garment, front and back, in two bold tones without color.The core of the range: nine designs, from S to 6XL, the widest size range of the three families.
All-over print, gold or colorThe same full coverage, but with gold, brick red or slate blue.When the garment is meant to be seen. Four models, the most striking in the series, and the only ones that go beyond black and white.
Stretch knit or muscle cutTwo models whose knit contains elastane and moves with you, plus one muscle-cut model that covers the shoulder.When the garment is really for training, or if thin straps don't suit you. Note: the muscle cut stops at 2XL.

Choosing your size

The manufacturer provides no size chart for the tank tops in this range. We would rather tell you so than publish a measurement chart we would have made up.

The method that never fails: take a tank top or a T-shirt you already wear and that fits you well. Lay it flat and measure from one armpit seam to the other. Write this number down: it is your benchmark. You are comparing one garment with another, without going through a theoretical size, and theoretical sizes are precisely what vary from one manufacturer to another.

The cut runs small: narrower in the shoulders and shorter in the body than a European cut of the same size. If you are between two sizes, take the larger one: this is the advice that avoids the most returns.

Available sizes vary by model. Thirteen tank tops go from S to 6XL, two from S to 5XL, and the muscle-cut one stops at 2XL. Check the drop-down list on the product page before ordering: it is the one that counts.

A word about the letters. Beyond XXL, these labels follow no common standard: a 4XL, 5XL or 6XL has no fixed equivalent, and the same letter does not mean the same thing from one manufacturer to another. Do not trust the letter, trust the centimeter.
