The start of the new season: why play it light?
The end of the season is often marked by the first heat waves. You want to play "light" to avoid being oppressed by your shirt. Tank tops are the perfect answer. It's also tournament season, when sleeveless outfits are particularly popular for getting through the day. Looking ahead a few weeks, we arrive at the period of physical preparation. Tank tops are immediately in demand in weight rooms and during cardio sessions.
The tank top, the iconic product of touch and 7-a-side rugby.
The singlet is a code word for 7-a-side rugby or touch rugby. These forms of rugby are beginning to emerge strongly in Europe. Originally, Australia and Hong Kong, the capital of 7-a-side rugby, played a major role in the development of these practices. The tank top also marks the fun, offbeat side of a game based on speed. The freedom of being able to play sleeveless during the spring/summer season is also very pleasant.
