AH_b42d900e-fd8b-11ee-9bc2-00155dcd4802Birds are always about freedom, wings and free flight. This is what our brand lives for. Women’s oversized T-shirt ‘Wings of the Free’ manifests this freedom in its purest form. People have long wanted to see the world from the bird’s eye view, so paragliders, balloons and aeroplanes were born out of this desire. It is the desire for freedom that we share with birds that keeps us from giving up our wings, even if they are not of flesh.
AH_f812051c-fd8b-11ee-9bc2-00155dcd4802Independent people have only one dependency, and that is dependence on freedom. In this respect, people are very similar to birds. Hundreds of years ago, Leonardo da Vinci wrote a treatise called ‘Codex on the Flight of Birds’, where he proposed a design for an aircraft that later formed the basis of the modern hang glider as based on the study of bird flight. Aviation has become the embodiment of the human dream of being free like birds. The stronger the dream, the easier it is to spread your wings.
AH_a523d80e-feb1-11ec-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bChildren are what we are fighting for, our reason for not giving up. But unfortunately, as long as we have a crazy neighbor, this war will not be the last. And we have to teach our children. And, as Serhiy Zhadan wrote: "we must pass on the most important things to our children: our culture and our weapons." That's probably what this quote is about. And that's why it's on another women's t-shirt from the “Zhadan.Quotes” collection. Because it is more relevant than ever. White t-shirt with a printed quote and cuts. The name of the series is sewn on the sleeve. On the back, our logo is printed in matching color.
AH_58e79229-feb1-11ec-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2b"We have to pass on the most important things to our children: our culture and our weapons" - this sounds like a testament to our children for many years to come, because this is the only way we can survive. That's why this quote by Serhiy Zhadan is on this new men's t-shirt from our quote collection “Zhadan.Quotes”. The second edition t-shirts are mainly white, with a cut on the chest with a printed quote sewn from the inside. The embroidered letter “Ж” is a distinctive feature of the collection and the name of the series is sewn as a patch on the sleeve. And our logo is printed in matching color on the upper back.
AH_7a2bc650-3e60-11ed-9ba8-ac1f6b742a2bThis men's t-shirt is about our pilots who hold up our sky, about all those who perform combat missions to protect the Ukrainian sky. In this design we decided to draw from an ancient aviation tradition: the image of aces (such images have been applied to airplanes and pilots' uniforms for more than 100 years (the word "Ace" comes from the name of the card). On the front is a large printed ace of spades with spades styled as wings, on the background of which there's a skull in a pilot's helmet and UA Sky Aces inscription. On the right shoulder is a printed blue and yellow roundel with UA Air Forces lettering and on the left is a spade with an airplane and AC (Air Command) Center inscription. There’s a printed logo on the upper back and a Proudly made in Ukraine label at the side seam.
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_9ba0b4bc-0165-11ef-9bc2-00155dcd4802We created this women’s T-shirt inspired by the strength and beauty of the heavyweights of Ukrainian military aviation from the 456th Dmytro Maiboroda Brigade, which belongs to the Centre Air Command and is based in Vinnytsia region. The brigade is armed with An-26 military transport aircraft and various types of helicopters for combat, search and rescue and air ambulance operations. The 456th Brigade has been defending Ukraine from russian aggression for 10 years. It was one of the first to go to the East of Ukraine in 2014. In July of the first year of the war, the enemy shot down our An-26 transport aircraft with two crew members on board in the sky over Luhansk region. After that, a new An-26 was named after the fallen commander, and later the Brigade itself. The Pegasus is the symbol of the 456th Brigade and is depicted on its official emblem: in our variation, it is extremely fearsome, yet fabulous and romanticised.
AH_4c1e22cd-0165-11ef-9bc2-00155dcd4802Our new men’s T-shirt is dedicated to the titans of the 456th Transport Aviation Brigade named after Dmytro Maiboroda, who have been defending Ukraine on their powerful wings and supporting our soldiers at the front line since 2014. The Brigade belongs to the Centre Air Command and is stationed in Vinnytsia region. In addition to heavy military transport aircraft An-26, it is equipped with various types of helicopters used to carry out search and rescue operations and provide air ambulance support for our troops. The Vinnytsia-based transporters were among the first to fulfil the needs of our army in 2014 and defend the Ukrainian east from the enemy. In July 2014, an An-26 transport aircraft with tail number 19 was shot down by the enemy in Luhansk region: two crew members, Lieutenant Colonel Dmytro Maiboroda and Assistant Commander Lieutenant Colonel Dmytro Shkarbun, were killed. A new An-26 was later named after the former, and then the entire Brigade was named after him. The impressive Pegasus, a fantastic creature is depicted on the Brigade’s official emblem, on the T-shirt symbolises the strength and beauty of the Ukrainian aviation powerhouse.
