Order custom basketball compression tanks in sleeveless cut built in our Sialkot factory and shipped worldwide. The hot-weather option in our compression base-layer trio. Same 200 GSM 4-way stretch polyester-spandex fabric as the compression long-sleeve and compression shorts, but cut sleeveless for indoor venues and warm-weather practice where arm coverage gets in the way of the work.
The custom basketball compression tank completes the compression base-layer trio: long-sleeve for cold venues, shorts for the lower body, tank for hot-weather practice and indoor games. Empire Five Athletics manufactures these tanks in 200 GSM 4-way stretch polyester-spandex. The same fabric as the long-sleeve and shorts, with the same flatlock-seam construction that prevents chafing under the game jersey. The cut is true compression: snug to the torso for muscle support and circulation, with shaped armholes that stay out of the way of shooting, rebounding, and lateral movement.
Compression-grade 4-way stretch poly-spandex with flatlock-seam under-jersey construction — same fabric as the compression long-sleeve and shorts for a coordinated base-layer trio.
Fit: Compression tanks run TRIM by design. They should fit snug to support the muscles. Size up one if a player prefers a less-compressive fit. The shaped armhole frames the shoulder line cleanly without binding the deltoid.
Positioning: NOT the same as the sleeveless-muscle game jersey. This is a base layer worn UNDER the game jersey for muscle support; the sleeveless-muscle is the game-day jersey itself. For cold-venue practice, the compression long-sleeve is the upgrade; for the lower-body counterpart, the compression shorts complete the trio.
Decoration: Embroidery and tackle twill are restricted to the flat chest panel only. Stitching across high-stretch zones (torso, sides) pops as the fabric flexes during play. Sublimation is the recommended decoration for compression tanks because it stretches with the fabric.
Sublimation is our recommendation — the only decoration method that flexes and recovers with the 4-way stretch fabric across full-game wear. Embroidery and tackle twill are limited to the flat chest panel only.
Full-color digital designs printed into the polyester-spandex fibers — the only decoration method that flexes with the fabric across the full 4-way stretch range. Graphics never crack, peel, or fade and color-match the compression long-sleeve and shorts exactly.
Dimensional decoration restricted to the flat chest panel. Embroidery and tackle-twill stitches pop when applied to high-stretch zones (torso, sides) because the spandex flexes more than the thread allows. We can embroider a small front-chest crest with no issues.
Flat-color decoration possible on the chest panel only — but generally not recommended for stretch base layers because flexing fabric can cause ink crack over time. Sublimation delivers the same look without the durability trade-off.
Standard ranges for men's, women's, and youth fits. Compression tanks run TRIM by design — see the note below for guidance.
