The Sacramento tank, for the town that is the City of Trees where the Gold Rush got its supplies. Lightweight Airlume cotton jersey with the Sacramento vintage retro logo on the chest in white, for the hottest months of the year.

The tank is the summer Sacramento 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.

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

John Sutter built his fort at New Helvetia in 1839, James Marshall’s gold strike at nearby Coloma on January 24, 1848, set off the Rush, and Sutter’s son laid out the city at the confluence of the Sacramento and American rivers that December. It incorporated on February 27, 1850, the oldest incorporated city in California, and became the state capital in 1854.

The Pony Express ended here from 1860, the First Transcontinental Railroad began here in 1863, and after the floods of 1849 and 1862 the streets were raised, leaving Old Sacramento’s Gold Rush buildings with an underground. The neoclassical Capitol rose in 1869–74 and the gold Tower Bridge in 1935. The City of Trees 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.

All Sacramento California Items

The next line started where the last one ended. Four Sacramento merchants — Leland Stanford, Collis Huntington, Mark Hopkins, and Charles Crocker, the "Big Four" — backed Theodore Judah's scheme for a railroad over the Sierra, and in 1863 the Central Pacific broke ground in Sacramento. Crews blasted and bored east through the mountains until, in 1869, the line met the Union Pacific at Promontory, Utah, and the country was bound together by rail. The roundhouses and shops stayed in Sacramento; today the California State Railroad Museum, the largest in the United States, anchors the Old Sacramento waterfront.

The gold itself was found upriver. In January 1848 James Marshall spotted flakes in the tailrace of a sawmill at Coloma, and within a year the world arrived. Sacramento, sitting at the head of river navigation where the goldfields met the water, became the great supply hub of the Rush — the Embarcadero port, the wholesale houses, the wagon roads up into the Sierra. The city was platted at the end of 1848 and incorporated in 1850, the oldest incorporated city in California, a boomtown built to outfit a gold rush.

Why People Visit Sacramento

Sacramento rewards travelers who want history, rivers, and shade rather than a beach — the Gold-Rush waterfront, the railroad that started here, the capitol, and a walkable grid under a famous tree canopy. People come for Old Sacramento and the Railroad Museum, for the Capitol and the gold bridge, and for an easy California day where frontier history and a leafy capital city sit side by side at the meeting of two rivers.
