The fit is as expected as far as size goes, as for being a normal tank top, not at all. I purchased 3 of these tanks because I expected them to fit the way the ones I purchased last year fit. Not at all! The shape of these shirts is off, making them less comfortable and causing them to pinch in the arm holes. I don't put these in the dryer and while they are wet I give them a good stretch all over, avoiding the seams. The colors are holding up so far, washing only in cold water. I don't hold any hope that these will last 18 mos like the first ones I bought. I would not recommend these shirts, they just aren't as comfortable as they should be.
