Men's Stringers & Tank Tops

Shop Men's Stringers & Tank Tops at Myprotein

When the goal is maximum movement and minimum restriction, men's tank tops are the go-to. This collection brings together gym vests, stringers, mesh tanks and seamless singlets built to handle whatever you throw at them — from heavy lifting sessions to high-tempo cardio.

With 20 styles across the range, there's a cut and fabric for every preference. Whether you want a close-fit muscle vest or a relaxed drop-armhole stringer, you'll find it here.

Who This Collection Is For

These men's gym vests are made for anyone who trains with intention. Lifters who want full shoulder mobility during pressing and pulling movements, runners who need something lightweight that doesn't weigh them down, and anyone who finds a full-sleeved top too restrictive mid-workout.

The range spans fitted and oversized silhouettes, so it works equally well for those who train for aesthetics and those who just want to move freely. If you're serious about your training gear, this is the collection to shop.

When to Wear Men's Stringers & Tank Tops

Men's training vests come into their own during weight training — the open shoulder construction keeps your arms completely unrestricted through pressing, rowing and overhead movements. Mesh panels on selected styles allow airflow to move through the fabric, keeping you comfortable when intensity is high.

They're just as at home outside the gym. The relaxed Rest Day drop-armhole styles and marl finishes work well as casual layering pieces, while the seamless constructions sit cleanly under a hoodie or zip-up for pre- and post-session wear.

Key Features

Engineered Mesh Panels

Several styles in the range feature ultra-mesh fabrication — an open-weave construction that allows air to circulate freely during intense sessions. It's a practical detail that makes a real difference when the temperature climbs.

Seamless Construction

The Velocity Ultra Seamless Singlets are knitted as a single piece, eliminating the seams that can dig in or irritate during movement. The result is a smooth, second-skin fit that moves with your body rather than against it.

Reflective Detailing

Selected men's gym tank tops feature reflective logo placement — a functional addition for anyone who trains outdoors or heads to the gym in low-light conditions. Visibility without compromising the clean aesthetic.

Versatile Silhouettes

From the close-cut Lift Ribbed Muscle Fit Vest to the relaxed Hybrid Oversized Mesh Tank, the range covers multiple fits in one place. Pick the silhouette that suits your training style — or grab a few.

FAQs

What are men's tank tops?

Men's tank tops are sleeveless training tops designed to give your arms and shoulders full range of motion. They come in various cuts — from fitted muscle vests to loose drop-armhole stringers — and are a staple in gym kits for lifters, runners and anyone who prefers training without sleeves.

How do I choose the right fit — stringer, tank or vest?

It depends on your training style and personal preference. A stringer or drop-armhole tank offers the most freedom of movement and airflow, making it ideal for heavy lifting or warm environments. A fitted muscle vest sits closer to the body and works well for those who prefer a more structured look. If you want something that crosses over into casual wear, the Hybrid Oversized Mesh Tank is a strong option — it's relaxed enough for everyday use but built for the gym.

What sizes are available?

The range is available across a broad size run to suit different builds. Check the individual product pages for the size guide specific to each style, as fit can vary between a close-cut muscle vest and an oversized mesh tank.

What are the tanks made from?

Fabrics vary across the range. You'll find lightweight jersey, open-weave mesh, ribbed knit and seamless constructions depending on the style. Each product page lists the full fabric composition, so it's worth checking before you buy if a specific material is important to you.

How should I care for my gym tank top?

Machine wash at a low temperature and avoid tumble drying where possible — this helps preserve the fabric integrity, especially on mesh and seamless styles. Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect any printed or reflective details. Always check the care label on the individual garment for specific guidance.

Who designs the Men's Stringers & Tank Tops range?

Every piece in this collection is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. They develop each style with training performance in mind — from fabric selection through to fit and finish.

Can I wear these men's gym vests for activities other than weightlifting?

Absolutely. While the range is built with gym training in mind, the lightweight fabrics and relaxed cuts on styles like the Rest Day Drop Armhole Tank make them equally suited to running, HIIT, yoga or just wearing around the house on warmer days.

Do the tanks come in different colours?

Yes — the collection spans a wide range of colourways, from neutral tones like black, white and grey marl through to bolder options like cornflower blue, deep crimson and dusted grape. Most styles are available in multiple colours, so there's plenty of choice whether you prefer understated or something with a bit more personality.
