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.

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.

The 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.
Fit check: James Perse
True to sizeOwners report James Perse's numeric sizing (0=XS up to 5=XXL) runs true to size, with a deliberately relaxed, California-casual cut rather than a slim one.
Reviewers and sizing guides agree the numbered sizing maps predictably to standard sizes and stays consistent across tees, tanks, long sleeves, and sweats — one long-term owner wears the same size 1 across every James Perse product she owns. The caveat owners flag is that the house cut is intentionally roomy: tees and sweats read slightly relaxed at your true size, so people wanting a trim fit sometimes size down, while button-ups and polos can wear looser than the marked size suggests. On the women's side, fitted jersey pieces are the exception — reviewers note the skinny and fitted styles run small, and pants are cut long.
Sizing advice: Take your usual size converted to the number scale (0=XS, 2=M, 3=L); size down only if you want a trim fit in the relaxed tees and sweats, and size up in fitted jersey styles.

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.
