The San Diego tank, for the town that is where California began. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the San Diego vintage retro logo on the chest in black, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer San Diego 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.

Unisex jersey tank made from lightweight Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton with a retail fit. Side-seam construction and self-fabric binding help it hold shape, with a tear-away label, and 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.

Cabrillo claimed the bay for Spain in 1542, and on July 16, 1769, Mission San Diego de Alcalá and the Presidio were founded, the first of the twenty-one missions and the first European settlement on the West Coast of the present United States. The American city incorporated in 1850 and Alonzo Horton laid out the modern downtown in 1867.

The 1915 Panama-California Exposition built Balboa Park’s Spanish Colonial Revival core, 1,200 acres and the largest urban cultural park in the nation; the Hotel del Coronado has stood on the Silver Strand since 1888, and the Navy fills one of the great natural harbors. Seventy degrees year-round on a bay that has been America’s harbor since 1769 is the mark on this piece.

More From San Diego California

All San Diego California Items

European San Diego dates to the summer of 1769, when Spanish expeditions established the Presidio of San Diego and Mission San Diego de Alcalá — the first of the twenty-one California missions and the first European settlement on the West Coast of the present-day United States. It is the event that earned the city its enduring nickname, the 'Birthplace of California.' The mission era is also a difficult history: in 1775 the Kumeyaay rose against the mission in an act of resistance against a system imposed on their land and their lives. San Diego holds both truths at once — the founding that opened California to the wider world, and the people whose home it already was.

San Diego began in July 1769, when Spain founded the Presidio of San Diego and Mission San Diego de Alcalá — the first of California's twenty-one missions.

Why People Visit San Diego

San Diego rewards visitors with a rare mix: deep early-California history, a working Navy harbor, great parks, and miles of Pacific coast under a famously mild sky. People come for Balboa Park and the bay, the beaches and Point Loma sunsets, and the story of the city where California began — historic, easygoing, unmistakably Californian.
