Potioncat:
Oh no! That is not what Sarah wears! I don't know what that is! Oh 
dear! 

Try this:
Go to Hanes.com Then look for men, T-shirts and choose this: Hanes™ 
Classics Ribbed Tank. I was going to give you the link, but it's the 
same one you have that didn't work. This is a beater. Obviously, 
Hanes has chosen to ignore that bit of slang in its ads.
 
I'd suggest looking at different underwear sites to see what they 
call the garment.

You know better than I do, but if the rest of the narration fits the 
style, beater might be OK. I don't think wife-beater is advisable.

Potioncat imagines a line something like, "Mary Sue fanned herself as 
she gazed at the glistening muscles through the damp Hanes(TM) 
Classics Ribbed Tank.
