Here's a good shot of the tank. I doubt it's the one actually used. It's a little off.

@byproduct23 and @rgwood where did you get the pic of the tank top and the tank top it self? I knew that it had to exist somewhere outside of Fox Studios. Can you tell what kind of fabric it is or how the image was printed on?

After being frustrated for awhile by not being able to find it I went ahead and made it.

I think I remember the commentary on one of the dvds mentioning that it's a custom tank made just for the movie.

No, I don't have any extra to sell as it was pretty expensive to just make one. Sorry! :<

If enough ppl want to have one I can probably make that happen. It won't be cheap, tho...

If interested send me an email: i-am-not-my-tank-top at fullrank dawt com. I'm sure on halloween everyone and their little bro will be asking me for one so I may get enough interest to do a batch up.

Maybe I should do a kickstarter project? No irony there.

The first two rules of Black Sugar Tank Top are totally being ignored here.

Noah is suggesting Cult Sugar Tank Tops.

1) where'd you get the Black Sugar tank top? and;

2) gimme the Black Sugar tank top.

... half-kidding... just saying, someone with the means should reproduce and sell them, I'm sure there is a market and people would pay a decent price.

A private collector contacted me and wanted one of my FC pieces and offered me to trade it for the BS shirt.
I am at the moment looking into collaborating with someone who would be able to help replicate it.

I just got my MotoX t-shirt from Ryan/Robert Paulson. Great quality and fit.

The website Kickstarter (not an advertisement, I'm in no way affiliated with them) could be a good way to get this project into a more tangible form and make the funding for it manageable, since clearly there's quit a bit of interest here already I'm assuming other people around the world would be just as excited to be a part of this project.

Good luck with your project, don't get discouraged Nick M. I really love your research and ideas. Something great will come of it.

That's an amazing collection, Isaak. Wouldn't mind having a piece of Marla memorabilia, anything really - most of all THE HAT -n- SHADES. She is killr, in that ensemble.

Maybe I should design a line of clothing and name it
*Marla's Glass Slipper*...

My 1-2am (somewhere abouts that time)sketch of something I've dubbed the Ham I Am disco dress.

^actually similar to a Bjork dress, but this one's green with pink lining, more fitted, and asymmetrical hem.

I need to work on proportions in that sketch. But, I'm tired and that's pretty much what I meant to draw.
I should be working on my portfolio...or sleeping.

To seekers of the Black Sugar Tank Top-

I have been trying to find this shirt for YEARS. Truth is, it was an original made for the film. I heard the same thing m'man did on the DVD. That being said, the photos are floating around, it has been made, if you will it, it is no dream! So enough threads back and forth. Money is not an object for me. This post is for anyone who made the shirt or got the shirt from a collector.
QUESTIONS
1. What are the steps necessary to get the shirt made? How would I find a designer? How would I get the image on to a shirt? How much does that sort of thing run?
2. Does anyone have one they wish to sell?
3. Is anyone interested in starting a kickstarter to fund this thing?

Possible Ways I can help
1. I know a clothing designer
2. I have money

If anyone is interested in collaborating on making this thing happen- I am down. I think it could be a solid investment and we might actually make a little $$$. The demand is there boys, lets come up with a supply!

You should maybe message Nick M or Isaak. Scroll back, they are tangled up all through, in this thread.

I doubt it was made just for the movie, if so then I have a real jem.
Anyway, replicas will be made. I am in talks with a extremely talented replica maker, it will happen people... but it will take time.

That is an awesome lighter.

But, $33?

They're rare and impossible to find in new condition. They're also refillable, youtube videos show how to refill disposable lighters.

You have a typo where you say 'If YOUR* not in the states...'

*you're

I don't have $33 to drop on a lighter, otherwise I'd probably buy one just to make my sister jealous that she never noticed that detail in the movie (I never noticed it either, but we wouldn't tell her that).

Wow. I can't believe how into Fight Club stuff people are, the attention to detail is pretty intense. Nice work.
