DEDICATED FUTURE IS FEMALE: the black sweater with a message
The FUTURE IS FEMALE sweater by Dedicated is one of those pullovers that has everything a good sweater needs: a great fit, sturdy organic cotton quality, a calm black color, and a small embroidered text with a big message.
No enormous print, no loud statement across your entire chest, but rather subtle and strong: Future is Female. Small embroidered on the front, which keeps the sweater easy to wear. Because yes, sometimes a message doesn't need to be big to come across clearly.
Why you want this sweater
This sweater is made of 100% organic cotton and has a sturdy 400 gsm French terry quality. That means: a nice, substantial fabric, but without a brushed fleece interior. The inside is unbrushed, so it is smoother and less fuzzy than a classic fleece sweater.
As a result, the sweater is comfortable to wear, but doesn't immediately feel like one of those thick winter sweaters you'd be roasting in after ten minutes indoors. Ideal for layering, for every day, and for anyone who loves a good basic with just a little bit more meaning.
The raglan sleeves give the sweater a relaxed, sporty look and ensure nice freedom of movement. The round neckline and ribbed cuffs keep it nice and classic. Just a good black sweater, but made more fairly and with a message that we, of course, love.
Fit & styling
The Dedicated FUTURE IS FEMALE sweater has a regular fit. It isn't super tight, but it isn't extremely oversized either. Just a nice, standard sweater fit that is easy to combine.
Wear it with jeans for a casual outfit, with wide-leg trousers for a slightly more modern look, or over a dress if you want to make it a bit edgier. Because of the black color, it goes with everything, and the small white embroidery gives your outfit a detail that stands out.
Also nice: because the print is embroidered and not printed in large scale, the sweater remains understated. Perfect if you like statement clothing, but not clothing that shouts "LOOK AT ME" all day long.
Material & washing instructions
This sweater is made of 100% organic cotton. The cotton is GOTS- and Fairtrade-certified, and also Regenerative Organic Certified. The fabric is a sturdy 400 gsm French terry with an unbrushed interior.
Wash the sweater inside out at a low temperature and do not use too much detergent. This keeps the black color looking good for longer and protects the embroidery. Do not overload the washing machine so that the sweater can rinse properly and streaks or wear are less likely to occur.
Let it air dry and preferably do not put it in the dryer. Cotton usually doesn't benefit from that, and it can affect the fit and color more quickly. Gently pull the sweater into shape after washing and let it dry naturally.

Sustainable & fair
Dedicated works with organic cotton and clear certifications. This sweater is made of GOTS- and Fairtrade-certified cotton and is also Regenerative Organic Certified. That means there is attention not only to the material itself, but also to the way the cotton is grown and produced.
And that fits exactly with what we like to see: clothing that is comfortable to wear, lasts a long time, and has a better story than "just another sweater." Because you wear a good basic often. And if that basic is also made more fairly, it only gets better.
Don't buy if...
Are you looking for a super thick, fluffy fleece sweater with a soft brushed interior? Then this might not be what you expect. The inside is specifically unbrushed, so it's smoother and less woolly.
But if you are looking for a sturdy black organic cotton sweater with a nice regular fit and a subtle statement? Then this is a really good one.
