With classic stripes and an easygoing style, this organic cotton Henley sweater is destined to be an absolute wardrobe essential.
All Fair Indigo sweaters are fully fashioned, meaning each panel of the sweater is knit to fit the body by increasing or decreasing stitches to make the exact shapes and linking together the panels along the seams to complete the sweater. Fully fashioned sweaters have a better fit than lesser quality cut-and-sew sweaters. The fully fashioned process also eliminates unnecessary waste. You will notice a fully fashioned sweater by the little marks shown along the armholes as shown here. Cut-and-sew sweaters won't have these. Quality is in the details.
Why will your organic cotton sweater 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.

"Love the indigo/undyed sweater!! It is luxuriously soft and comfortable, and the fit is perfect--flattering but not too tight or clingy. I am 5'3" and 103 lbs. and the size small is a little bit long on me, but I like it that way. I would buy another if there were other color options. The black stripes are too bold for me."
"It's so comfortable, fits well, and seems to be well made. It did seem to shrink just a tiny bit when washed and dried. Will air dry from now on. My only complaint is that the bottom hem needs to be ironed down after washing, but this is just because I don't like to iron. Ha!"
"Got this for my young adult as a bigger Christmas gift. She is 5’4”, slight, and takes the XS. This has worn like iron, even with a college student’s sometimes questionable laundry practices! She loves her stripes, and the quality of this looks more professional than her usual clothing, so she wears it to nicer occasions. Super soft."
"Very well made, nice fit, can be dressed up or down. Pretty sweater."
"I love the fit and structure of this sweater. I am building a wardrobe from Fair Indigo! Please add waffle knit style shirts to your line for those of us who live in cold!"
"Love the material, color and fit."
"I absolutely love this light sweater. Colors exactly as shown in the pictures. It is super soft and elegant and I recommend buying this!"
"It's a wonderful "sweater" whisper soft, slightly breezy perfectly matched stripes."
"I love how this fits, and it is so soft. It will be a cold weather favorite."
"I'm a cotton and rayon wearing woman! I love 100% pima cotton but the styles have been limited to a few solid colors. It's great to have a striped shirt ! I love the gold and black. I wish you'd make tees and leggings in that exact same golden brown color!"
