    It's the Switchback tank. And it's on sale now...
    I've had it for years. I saw a couple of others that looked great recently, but the reviews were horrible; the things are too tight. I bought another style of Athleta top around the same time as the Switchback and I ripped it the first time I wore it, because I couldn't get it off! I don't mind the tightness when they are on, but please, I shouldn't have to be a contortionist to get a top off.

    It's kind of a "summer" orange. I guess we can't PM images or I wouldn't have put this in the thread. I'd be interested in a trade if you'd like this one - it's kind of an interesting color so I understand if not. Just let me know!

    (Oh, there is a small gathered area with decorative stitching in the lower left front, which they seem to not be doing on the newer Lhasa tops. May be hard to tell b/c the shirt is pretty wrinkled!)

    I like it, Jess. I'll post pics if the two tops I have that you might like and, assuming you want one of them, we can do a trade.

    Jess, here are the Lululemon tanks. They are a size 6. You might take a look at their size chart for a frame of reference. I tend to think they run a tad bit small, but it's hard to tell with as much stretch as they have.





    Just let me know if yoiu're interested in either one of them for a trade. Neither have ever been worn. The green one still has its tags in fact.

    Thanks!

    Um, may I ask a silly question?
    Why a "yoga-specific" top? Is it just so that there's no excess fabric getting in the way.

    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Range of movement, coverage and support where you need it. I turn my body every which way, including upside down, in a room that is 95 degrees. A regular shirt will not work for me. But it doesn't have to be yoga specific per se. Running tanks can work too.

    That sounds like my idea of torture! But then, I wilt if it gets above about 85.

    The few yoga classes I took, the instructor just told us to show up in whatever's comfortable, so I have no clue.
