Fully fashioned: the lovemarks of quality
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.
Organic Pima Cotton: the best on earth
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.
Non-toxic dyes
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).
Quality clothing step by step
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.
Ethically made clothing feels GREAT to wear
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.
Making an even bigger impact
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.
