The Dallas tank, for the town that flies a red Pegasus over its skyline. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the Dallas vintage retro logo on the chest in black, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer Dallas piece: light enough for the trail, the boat and the porch, cut in a retail unisex fit that runs true to size. Order it before the warm weather does the deciding for you.

This unisex jersey tank is made from lightweight Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton with a retail fit, side-seam construction, self-fabric binding, and a tear-away label. It runs true to size for adults. Solid colors are 100% cotton; select heather/prism shades may include cotton–poly or cotton–poly–rayon blends.

Dallas began in 1841 as John Neely Bryan’s trading post at the best ford on the Trinity River, on the near-treeless Blackland Prairie of North Texas, with no harbor and no obvious reason to grow. Surveyed in 1844, named county seat in 1846 and chartered in 1856, it willed itself into a city when the railroads arrived in 1872–73 and cotton, banking and commerce followed.

The twentieth century gave the city its icons: Neiman Marcus in 1907, the State Fair at Fair Park from 1886 and the 1936 Texas Centennial Exposition that left the world’s largest collection of Art Deco exposition buildings, the neon Pegasus over the 1922 Magnolia Building in 1934, and Reunion Tower’s lit-up ball in 1978. That mix of frontier ford and glittering skyline is the Big D confidence the mark on this piece is drawn from.

Who makes this?

Merlin Classics is a small Connecticut brand making original retro designs for the towns people love. Every piece is printed, embroidered or engraved to order in the USA, and the business supports hunger relief in the communities our collections celebrate.

Today Dallas is skyline and prairie light, museums and neon, a flying red horse over a downtown that never stops building. Our Dallas designs gather that identity — the longhorn emblem, Big D confidence, the Pegasus and the skyline — into wearable form. It is a Texas city that made itself out of almost nothing and has been proud of it ever since. Dallas, Texas — Big D, where the red Pegasus still flies over a skyline a frontier trader started by a river ford.

What followed was a boom the city more or less willed into being. Dallas made itself the largest inland cotton market in the country, then turned cotton money into banks, and banks into the financial capital of the East Texas oil fields — “Big D,” where the money was. Style came with the money: Neiman Marcus opened its doors in 1907 and gave the city a name for fashion and luxury it has never let go of. By the early twentieth century the prairie trading post had become one of the great commercial cities of the Southwest — glittering, ambitious, and a little theatrical about it.

Why People Visit Dallas

Dallas rewards visitors who like a city with confidence: a skyline you can read like a history book, a world-class arts district, museums of real weight, and food worth crossing town for. Add the flying red Pegasus, the Art Deco of Fair Park, and Texas hospitality scaled up, and Big D makes a strong case for itself.
