AH_c48d142e-4978-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bIf we delve into the history of symbols that were inherent in aviation at different times, one of those symbols is the ace. Aces have adorned airplanes and pilot uniforms for more than 100 years. This is because the actual word "Ace" meaning "master of air combat" comes from the word "ace" (French as, English ace). It came from the cards meaning the highest card in the deck. We decided to use this ancient tradition in the design of this women's t-shirt. On the front is a large print with the ace of spades, where the spades are styled as wings, and in the center is a skull in a flight helmet, a kind of allusion to the death that our pilots bring to the enemy. Below it is the inscription UA Sky Aces. On the sleeves, there is a roundel with the inscription Ukrainian Air Forces and a spade with an airplane in the middle, and the inscription AC "Center" (that is, "Air Command"). Our label is at the side seam and our logo is printed on the back as usual.
AH_94b18724-34ed-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bA unisex shirt that tells about the heroic pilots who accomplished an unreal mission — flying 7 sorties to occupied Mariupol. They delivered medicine and weapons to the defenders of Mariupol when the city was already deep in the enemy's rear and evacuated the wounded. The black shirt jacket has two patch pockets on the front of the chest and discreet side pockets. On the back, there is our embroidered logo, and on one shoulder there is a printed patch of MI-8 (these are the helicopters our heroes fly on) and a brief description of the mission. On the other, there is a map of Mariupol and a print with the same helicopter and the inscription Mission Mariupol Impossible. Under the collar on the left is an Independence War print on a blue-yellow background.
AH_2a971aec-3e69-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bThe new Indian dress tells the story of a Ukrainian pilot Ivan Datsenko who came to Canada and became the leader of the Indigenous people and received the name Chief Poking Fire — the one who passed through the fire. The dress is quite restrained and minimalistic, its back is longer than the front. Mostly black, with a wide khaki stripe in the front. Only on the back, there is a small bright embroidery with the Chief’s name and embroidered feathers in matching color. The dress comes with a cropped bolero sweatshirt. It has a bright pattern on the front, back, and shoulders, reminiscent of an indigenous poncho. On the back, above the embroidered inscription Chief Poking Fire is our embroidered logo.
AH_fbc2a099-454c-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bAnother new item from the series about the brave men who save our pilots: about the Control Center for Search and Rescue Aviation Support of the AFU. Dark green women's t-shirt with a large print on the front. The print depicts our interpretation of the center's motto - "For Life", the MI-8 helicopter, the year the Center was founded, and the “Search and rescue” motto. You can see a curious vehicle amidst the fir trees: ARGO, an amphibian from Canada that we handed over to the guys, thanks to all of you who love and buy our clothes. We believe that we contributed to the rescue of our pilots and made the missions a little easier. The full name of the Center with the nomenclature number and a roundel in the colors of the flag are printed on the sleeves.
AH_21eb23c1-3bdf-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bAfter February 24, 2022, everything changed. We Ukrainians have changed. Our life and habits have changed. For many people, the values have changed. And the world, in general, has also changed. No one believes that the UN can decide anything anymore. And it is not a secret for anyone who is the number one terrorist state in the world (at least in this muscovites are the first). This unisex shirt is about this (mainly about our war). It’s made in military style and color, and in the patches and decorations we have collected certain symbolic things that emerged after February 24. Here are the Molotov cocktails (aka Bandera smoothies), and the ghost of Kyiv, and We are from Ukraine. And also the birds, our horrible chemical weapons, the hero of the new folk songs Bayraktar, Neptune, with which moscow was drowned, and the famous Chornobaivka. The central print on the back is Independence War (because this is our War for Independence), with the Battle for the New World and UA patches next to it. And this shirt is very functional. Two large front pockets with side entry and a Velcro flap. The sleeves have three buttons and a tab in the middle, very useful, so that the sleeves do not straighten when rolled up. On each sleeve, there is a flat invisible pocket for small things. Buttons in the front on a placket, and on one side behind them there’s a hidden inner pocket. Reinforced side seams at the bottom. And a few of our traditional decorations - a roundel on the shoulder and our logo on the upper back.
AH_c8eb7f23-f6d1-11ec-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bThis unisex shirt would be a perfect fit for Lara Croft if she had one. The best and most convenient for traveling. Very functional. The fabric is thick but quite soft. On the chest, there are two large patch pockets with access both from the top via a flap (fastened with Velcro) and from the side. Another hidden pocket is on the inside of the chest. The collar allows you to button up the shirt beneath the neck and feel comfortable. There are two more hidden pockets on the sleeves (you can put all kinds of small things there, such as cards or cash). The sleeves themselves have a hidden tab (which helps to keep the sleeves from rolling down when rolled up), two buttons on each cuff, an extra button on the upper armhole for comfortable adjustment, and velcro for patches on both sides. One patch is already included, it's our flag. The side seams at the bottom are reinforced to withstand a journey of any difficulty. On the upper back is our embroidered logo.
AH_13e55f4e-38dd-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bA pelican is an awesome bird, large and able to carry loads in its beak. Yes, it can be found in Ukraine too. You couldn’t find a more appropriate symbol for transport aviation :) That's why this women's 25th Transport Brigade t-shirt has a printed pelican on it. Against the background of the globe, because these guys can fly anywhere. On the shoulder is a printed roundel, and on the back are the characteristics of the Il-76 MD aircraft used by the 25th Brigade: weight, length, load capacity, and wingspan.
AH_0c7b11fc-2eae-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bThe Ukrainian pelicans, the 25th Transport Aviation Brigade, fly an Il-76 MD aircraft. It is a legend of cargo transportation, the most technologically advanced military transport aircraft in the world as of 1971 and for a long time after. These are the jets that our pilots use to perform combat missions and participate in international missions. That's why this women's t-shirt is about it. On the front, there is a large print with a blue and yellow roundel and the Il-76 MD aircraft itself. It also features its year of birth. On the shoulder is a printed patch of the 25th Brigade with a pelican in our interpretation.
AH_0eeb0de0-2df1-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bMany, many years after our victory, we will write new fairy tales and legends. They will feature the Cyborgs, and the Steel Men... And there will be the Chimeras or HIMARS, the ferocious beasts that stood on the side of good and could destroy enemies wherever they were hiding and no matter how far away they were. That's what our new women's t-shirts are about. In a slightly new style for us, but no less mood driven. There is a large print on the front that features our predator itself. The outline of its head looks exactly like that of a real HIMARS, as well as the rocket launcher on its back. In general, the beast turned out to be a little fairy-tale, a little Prymachenko-esque. It shoots badly stinging snakes, and it's surrounded by stars all around (and at the bottom is the inscription HIMARS Time because that beast is mostly nocturnal). And the small text "With a little help from my friends" is a quote from The Beatles song, because we all know where that beast came from to our forests ;)P.S. You can choose any color to your taste.
AH_3fe36e92-2902-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bA victorious women's hoodie tells the story of the flying heroes who delivered cargo to occupied Mariupol and evacuated the wounded while risking their lives every minute. Gray in color, it has a deep hood and a collar that covers the neck. The sleeves are reinforced on the forearms and wrists, on the sleeves there are Velcro adjusters instead of cuffs. There are pockets on the sides, and in the front, there is a velcro clasp shifted to the side. On the chest is our embroidered logo, and below it, there’s a printed composition of the map of Azovstal, an MI-8 helicopter, and a roundel in the colors of the flag with the inscription Mission Mariupol Impossible. On the back, there is a large print with the same motto, a roundel, and an MI-8 helicopter. On one sleeve, there is the UA embroidery, on the other, there is a patch with the inscription Independence War.
AH_6c0eb5ba-1a39-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bIf wolves could fly, they would be the 39th Tactical Aviation Brigade. It was this Brigade that took the wolf as its symbol, and this women's t-shirt is about them, the Forest Brothers. Deep green, a sort of forest color. On the back, there’s a print with a wolf holding anti-aircraft missiles in its paws, with the motto, which, in our opinion, suits this brigade "Those Who Hold Up the Sky". On the front, there’s a wolf paw and the actual signature of the Forest Brothers. On the sleeves, there’s a roundel and the Brigade’s signature. On the upper back, our logo is printed in matching color.
