tank suit

Poolside athletic garment

A tank suit is a one-piece swimsuit with wide shoulder straps similar to those on a tank top, offering more coverage and support than a bikini while remaining streamlined for swimming.

The design typically features a scooped neckline and modest leg openings, making it a practical choice for lap swimming and athletic use.
