Barnard, Classic, Staple, and Muscle are the named cuts inside the AS Colour mens tank line, each with a slightly different fit through the shoulder and body. Here is what each style is generally known for, which one Bear Grips Pro Shops prints directly, and how to place a design that reads clean on tank fabric.
The Named AS Colour Mens Tank Styles
- Barnard. A ribbed, singlet-style tank with a fitted body, popular in gym and bodybuilding circles.
- Classic. The standard rib-knit tank cut, straightforward and versatile.
- Staple. A heavier basic tank, built more for durability than a fitted athletic look.
- Muscle. A dropped-armhole cut that gives extra shoulder range of motion for training.

Design Placement That Works on Mens Tanks
- Left chest, small. A 3-4 inch logo sits clean on the cut-off tank's flatter front panel.
- Full back, large. The dropped armhole and open back give strong visibility for a bold logo or slogan.
- Avoid oversized full-front graphics. The relaxed drape of the cut-off style can distort a large front print during movement.
