What are the shirts called with no shoulders?
Tube top. A tube top is a shirt with no sleeves or shoulders, essentially a tube that wraps around the wearer's torso.
Epaulettes are fastened to the shoulder by a shoulder strap or passenten, a small strap parallel to the shoulder seam, and the button near the collar, or by laces on the underside of the epaulette passing through holes in the shoulder of the coat. Colloquially, any shoulder straps with marks are also called epaulettes.
Tube Tops. Tube tops are usually made of tight-fitting, elastic-like material and have no sleeves or straps. Tube tops also show the midriff area, so they are quite skimpy.
We call them "tank tops," though sometimes they're called "sleeveless," though that mostly happens in womens clothing. If you wear a tie, around your neck it's under the collar of your shirt.
