A slim-fit women's racerback in 4 oz (135 gsm) 60/40 combed ring-spun cotton/polyester. the maker and reviewers call it soft and lightweight, but reviewers across several sellers consistently say it runs small and can be see-through in white/light colors. Printful offers it XS-2XL as a DTG blank from $11.17. [C_composition, C_af_soft, C_sr_mfr, C_af_runs_small, C_af_thin_sheer, C_price_pf_base] ## Overview Next Level 1533 'Ideal Racerback Tank', a women's/ladies' racerback, offered by Printful and six Printify DTG providers. [C_id_mfr, C_listing_pf] Fabric is 4 oz/135 gsm 60/40 combed ring-spun cotton/polyester, 30 singles, laundered. [C_composition, C_weight_oz_val, C_weight_meta] ## Tradeoffs Thin fabric that can be see-through in white/light colors. [C_af_thin_sheer] Runs small, and the range stops at 2XL (no 3XL+). [C_af_runs_small, C_sr_pf] A GSM discrepancy exists in provider copy (Printful lists 113.4 g/m2; the maker and Printify list 135 g/m2). [C_gsm_135] ## Decoration DTG is the default and only Printful technique; the base price includes one front print. [C_deco_pf, C_offer_pf] Printful add-ons: back print +$5.95, inside/neck label print +$0.99. [C_pc_back, C_pc_label] Printify providers print front/back DTG; SwiftPOD, Underground Threads and Printify Choice also expose a neck-label DTF area. [C_deco_py_dtf] ## When it fits Best for lightweight, fitted women's summer or athletic tanks: a low-cost blank the maker and reviewers describe as soft. [C_af_soft, C_sr_mfr, C_deco_pf] For opacity-sensitive art, reviewers favor darker or heather colors over white/light. [C_af_thin_sheer] ## Fit and sizing Finished-garment flat: half-chest 14-19 in and body length 27-29.5 in across XS-2XL. [C_meas_mfr] To-fit body chest is 28-38 in (XS-2XL). [C_meas_ss] Independent reviews widely report it runs small; many advise sizing up. [C_af_runs_small] Printful's 'measure yourself' guide repeats the garment-flat numbers instead of the to-fit body chest, so size against the 28-38 in body chest. [C_af_measure] ## Standard pricing Printful standard (non-member) price: $11.17 for S-XL and $13.17 for 2XL; snapshot 2026-09-16, excludes shipping and tax.
