The San Francisco tank, for the city the Gold Rush built and the earthquake rebuilt. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the San Francisco vintage retro logo on the chest in white, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer San Francisco 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.

A retail-fit unisex tank in lightweight Airlume combed and ring-spun cotton. Side seams and self-fabric binding help it hold its shape, the label tears away, and it runs true to size for adults. Solids are 100% cotton; select heather and prism shades may include cotton–poly or cotton–poly–rayon blends.

The Spanish founded Mission Dolores and the Presidio in 1776, Sam Brannan brought the news of gold to the village in 1848, and the city the Rush built incorporated in 1850. Andrew Hallidie’s cable cars began running in 1873, and on April 18, 1906, the earthquake and fire destroyed eighty percent of it; the city rebuilt and threw the Panama-Pacific Exposition in 1915.

The Golden Gate Bridge opened in 1937, the Painted Ladies have stood on Alamo Square since the 1890s, the cable cars are the only moving National Historic Landmark, and the fog still rolls under the bridge every evening across a seven-by-seven-mile peninsula of forty-nine hills. The city by the Golden Gate is the mark on this piece.

Product FAQs

How does your sizing work?

Every item is made to order, so please check the size chart on this page before you buy. Women's fitted tees run small; size up for a looser fit. Caps are one size with an adjustable strap.

How are items made and when will they arrive?

We make each item to order using premium blanks, embroidery and soft-hand prints. Production takes 2-5 business days (weekends and holidays excluded), then 4-10 days in transit via USPS, UPS or FedEx to U.S. addresses; most orders arrive within 6-15 business days. You'll get a tracking link the moment it ships. Any current shipping offer is shown in the bar at the top of every page and applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

How do I send a gift?

Enter the recipient's address as the shipping address and your own as the billing address at checkout. Nothing ships with a price; the package includes a plain packing slip. Tracking goes to your email, not theirs. For birthdays and holidays, order two weeks ahead to be safe.

What's the return policy?

Made-to-order items can't be returned or exchanged for size or color, so please use the size chart and photos before ordering. If anything arrives defective, misprinted or damaged, send a photo and your order number within 30 days and we'll replace it or refund you.

How do I care for my item?

Apparel: wash cold, inside out, with like colors; no bleach; tumble dry low or hang dry. Embroidered pieces: iron inside out to protect the stitching. Caps: spot clean. Printed glasses and water bottles: hand wash only, no dishwasher, so the artwork lasts. Mugs and engraved glasses are dishwasher safe. Any item-specific care notes are in the description above.

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.

The earthquake of April 18, 1906 and the four-day fire that followed destroyed eighty percent of the city and killed more than three thousand people; the rebuilt city hosted a world’s fair by 1915.

The hills got their machines and their houses in the same generation. At four in the morning on August 2, 1873, the London-born inventor Andrew Smith Hallidie took the controls of the Clay Street Hill Railroad and ran the world’s first successful cable car down the Nob Hill grade — a system that still climbs the hills today as the only moving National Historic Landmark in the United States. The Painted Ladies of Alamo Square rose in the 1890s, the Queen Anne row on Steiner Street that has posed for every generation of photographers since, and the 1898 Ferry Building anchored the foot of Market Street.

Why People Visit San Francisco California

San Francisco offers the orange bridge in the fog, a moving landmark for a transit system, an island prison with a harbor view, Victorian rows and mission adobe, and hills that hand you a postcard at every crest. Visitors come for the Golden Gate, the cable cars, Alcatraz, the neighborhoods, the food, and the fog that is part of the architecture. On the Bay since 1776.
