Ribbed Daily Tank
About James Perse’s tops: James Perse builds its women's tops range around garment-dyed knit tanks and camis rather than woven blouses, running from $75 ribbed cotton basics up to linen sweater tanks and washed-silk camis above $300.
Is the price honest?
Our take
The Ribbed Daily Tank is the entry point to James Perse's women's tops line: a fitted, garment-dyed rib tank with a scoop neckline, sold year-round in core and seasonal colors at $75. The brand cuts it close to the body with a soft, matte finish, and the hem is built to hold its shape. Longtime owners rate the jersey as genuinely comfortable and well cut, but the recurring caveat is price — most say buy on sale — and the soft cotton picks up lint easily.

Write the first honest reviewThe details
- Material
- A ribbed stretch-cotton knit — listed at retail as 95% Supima cotton, 5% Lycra spandex — garment dyed for a soft, matte, lived-in finish.
- Fit
- Fitted and cut close to the body on the brand's numeric 0-4 sizing (0/XS through 4/XL). The rib has real stretch, so anyone wanting less cling should take the larger of two sizes.
- Quality
- Forum owners describe the brand's knits as comfortable and well made through years of wear; the noted downsides are full-retail pricing and jersey soft enough to attract lint.
- Best for
- Anyone wanting a close-fitting, clean-lined layering tank and a low-cost first test of the brand's jersey.
- Care
- Machine wash cold and skip the dryer to preserve the rib's stretch and the garment-dyed color.
How James Perse tops hold up overall
Owners consistently describe James Perse tees as unusually soft combed-cotton shirts with a cut that fits well through the chest and a collar that keeps its shape. Sizing on the brand's numeric scale is reported as consistent across tees, tanks, and long sleeves. The recurring complaint is value: at the brand's premium tee pricing, owners report light pilling after machine washing and question how long the shirts last for the money. Gentle-cycle washing and air drying are widely recommended to keep them in shape.
- Strengths
- Softness and a well-cut, true-to-size fit are the most repeated points of praise across reviews.
- Watch out for
- Light pilling after washing and doubts about durability relative to the price are the most common complaints, so owners recommend gentle washing and air drying.
- Sizing
- Reviewers report the brand's numeric sizing runs true to size and stays consistent across tees, tanks, and long sleeves.
