I am so excited with the "Black Inventors" top and give it 5 Stars for its power to move people to want to learn MORE. On the streets, in stores ( just today at Target), wherever I wear it. Bravo! Buy one, wear it with pride, give them as gifts and spread awareness and enjoy the journey this top will take you on! Amazing.

Sweatshirt reviews

The product was misleading in some way, I was expecting more of a traditional sweatshirt material and I was disappointed that Malcolm X was not included on this product, you have repeated photos on the sleeve, my comparison is to a t-shirt that was purchased by me from melanin a couple years ago, but I will probably purchase another product in the future

Perfect

I've bout multiple items from melaniful over the past 7 years and all have been high quality and exceptionally pleasing. However when I bought this sweat shirt which is made to order I thought I picked the wrong size because it looked larger than expected. Except when I tried it on not only was it a perfect fit but the quality was amazing. Thick durable texture but breathable and doesn't feel heavy and too hot. Colors were vividly bright

This is NOT designed to fit men and women. I ordered a small and it’s huge👎🏾. These sizes are definitely geared towards fitting men. Very disappointed. And on top of that I was told I’m not eligible for a full refund… zero stars is what I was trying to give this review but it would not let me take the 1 star I pressed back.

The quality of the garment was not great , the delivery took almost a month . I love the concept of the garment, but I wish the material was better quality.

Great job.

I ordered my first shirt and it was extremely to big. I reached out to return for my size and was told to keep it AND sent a replacement correct size. I love it.
It's the representation of black woman for me. Thanks Melaninful. Hurry folks. Get yours.

I got this in a XL, this is not true to size. Sizes run bigger. If you wear a XL then buy it in a L instead. Very disappointing

I love it!!

The sweater was exactly what I expected, the feel, the look, and how they captured the faces of our amazing leaders was wonderful. And after ordering a wrong size, customer service communication was immediate and the correction was made immediately. I DEFINITELY RECOMMEND this company and ALL of their quality pieces!!! Thank you for all you guys do and keep up the great work!!!💪🏽

The material is not good! The sweater is like a large not small but it says small! I am just not happy at all

It's a lot bigger than I expected. But very beautiful overall.

The threading is coming apart along the waist, left, and right arms. I'm pretty much satisfied with the many purchases so far about 97%. Also, on the Andrinka symbol, long sleeve zipper jacket, the waist is no longer holding it shape.

Questions, answered

You may be wondering...

Is Melaninful Black-owned?

Yes — independent and family-run. Every design is researched, drawn and pressed by us, and every order keeps that work in the family. Community over commerce, always.

What should I expect when wearing Melaninful's clothing?

Conversations. Every print carries a researched story — the date, the names, the movement — so expect people to ask about it. The story ships with the print.

How long will it take to receive my order?

Every print is pressed to order. It leaves the press in 3–5 business days and typically arrives within 7–12 business days, worldwide, with tracking.

Will the print fade or peel after washing?

No — the art is dyed into the fabric, not stuck on top, so it can't peel or crack. Wash cold, inside out, and the print outlives the seams.

Can I cancel or modify my order after placing it?

Yes — within 24 hours of ordering, before your print hits the press. Email support@melaninful.net and we'll fix it.

What should I do if my order doesn't arrive?

Tell us and we make it right — replacement or refund, your call. Love it or get it FREE isn't a slogan; it's the policy.
