Helltown Merman Tank Top
The quintessential Provincetown tank top - designed and made locally, exclusive to Arcadia.
A furry, muscled merman rises from the bay, covered in tattoos of Provincetown lore.
Helltown refers to an old fisherman's settlement out at Herring Cove beach aka Boy Beach and Hatches Harbor (where the breakwater is now), which was beyond the last Puritan parish church in Truro. It was therefore the scene of much carousing, drinking, partying and carrying on when the fishermen were not hard at work, and condemned as a helltown by the righteous of Truro parish.
Not much has changed, thankfully!
Tank top is US made Royal Apparel tri-blend (50% polyester, 37% combed cotton, 13% rayon) for superb softness from the first instant and long lasting wear without any shrinkage.
Small measures 16.5" wide by 27" long (from the shoulder strap), medium measures 20" wide by 27.5" long, large is 21" wide by 28.5" long, extra large is 22.5" wide by 29.5" long, double extra large is 24" wide by 31" long. For those of you who know me, I wear a medium in tank and tee, a large in baseball shirt and either medium or large in sweatshirt.
