BUTTON FRONT COTTON TEE
"This is one of my favourite shirts. Fits perfectly, washes and dries perfectly."
Style: 5443
As pulled together as any woven blouse, this Short Sleeve Knit Button Down Shirt offers a refined appearance while its soft knit fabric provides the relaxed feel of your comfiest t-shirt. It looks great on its own or layered under a sweater or jacket.
Pura is a smooth and dreamy soft all-cotton jersey. It's slightly lighter than our best-selling Eterna fabric, but by no means tissue-weight. The organic fabric is also washed before the clothing is cut and sewn, a rare but very beneficial step in the production process. It not only insures your clothes won't shrink, but also prevents puckering and twisting around seams that often happens in your dryer when the fabric shrinks but the threads used to sew the garment don't to the same degree.
Why will your organic cotton clothing feel otherworldly soft right out of the bag and endure beautifully for years? Because we use the top 0.05% (not a typo) of cotton available. Softest and strongest aren't often used to describe a single fiber. Except when it's organic Peruvian Pima cotton. Ours is grown on two family farms and harvested with care by hand. Simply the best cotton you'll find anywhere on the planet.
All of our dyes are certified to the most stringent safety standards such as the Oeko-tex 100 standard. They're tested for literally hundreds of dangerous substances like Azo colorants, formaldehyde, pentachlorophenol, cadmium, and nickel. Our dyes meet or exceed the US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) regarding lead and the European Chemical Regulation (REACh).
You've probably heard the expression 'less is more.' At Fair Indigo, we're inspired by the idea striving for LESS. A saner wardrobe that makes use of timeless 'forever in fashion' pieces you'll go back to time and again. That's why we build in quality - from the cotton and dyes we select to the extra processes we implement to create a garment you'll love for years. Buy better, buy less, live fully.
Often when apparel brands talk about sustainability, they are talking about making clothing that respects the environment and its limited resources - something to be applauded for sure. But at Fair Indigo, it also means sustainable lives for the world's garment workers. And a sustainable business model that prices clothing fairly, not too-good-to-be-true low (a signal the people were left out of the equation) nor artificially high to promote a future 70% off sale. It's time to move beyond fast fashion. For good.
In addition to living wage jobs, we believe the key to transforming communities from poverty to prosperity is education.
The Fair Indigo Foundation funds teachers' salaries, books, building improvements, and computer labs for children who otherwise were being left behind.

"This is one of my favourite shirts. Fits perfectly, washes and dries perfectly."
"Beautiful shirt! Feels so good wearing it and is flattering!"
"This is a go-to item for me. In the past I have not been a fan of button downs bc often they just don't fit me well, being all hips and chest and very short waisted. But this shirt looks great and is so comfortable for running around with clients showing properties. I regret only buying it in one color and when they bring more short sleeve ones back for summer, I hope for a wide color collection so I can buy a few. And you just cannot shrink Fair Indigo items!"
"Love these! So soft and the quality is excellent."
"I received this short sleeve button up as a Christmas gift and I adore it! Love at first wear!!! The fabric is so soft! Every stitch and seam is so carefully placed and securely fastened. Easily the highest quality button down shirt that I own. Thank you, Fair Indigo, for crafting such an excellent product that I will enjoy for YEARS to come. Truly the greatest and most ethical clothing company ever! Thank you! For sizing reference, I am 5 ft 4 inches tall and weight ~155 lbs. I received the Large and it fits a little loose (as I prefer with my broader shoulders). This garment is wonderfully made and there is no button gap at all while moving any which way. If you've been searching for the perfect button down shirt, THIS IS IT!"
"So comfortable, looks great, and fits nicely! I sized up (wear in between a XS-S, bought an S). I wear it for my work/internship and it looks professional (but feels like I'm just wearing a regular old T-shirt). Definitely recommend. I wish there were more colors!!!"
"I love this shirt. I bought it in slate blue, medium. It's good looking and comfortable. I wish they had it available in more colors."
"Comfortable, perfect fit and sleek. I wish it was bluer but it lends a nice, rather neutral look."
"I like the shirt. I wish there were more colors. It is exactly what I wanted"
"I was looking for something a little nicer than a T-shirt and I decided on short sleeve button down cotton knit. These shirts are perfect. I own four of them. Extremely comfortable, shrink very little or not at all. Very nice sleeve length, not too short, not too long! The orange color fabric seems to be different, a little less soft and stretchy for some reason. Please make these in more colors! Purple and navy blue would be awesome!"
