Volya — воля — means freedom, will, the choice to act. It's one of the most loaded words in the Ukrainian language, and this hoodie carries it in a way nothing else in the catalog does.

The coat of arms embroidered on the front is a specific historical reference: an interpretation of the Ukrainian tryzub created by Mykola Bytynskyi for the Album of Uniforms of the Ukrainian Army and Navy during the Liberation Struggle of 1917–1921, a work of Ukrainian military graphic design from the 1930s. Bytynskyi was building a visual record of a country that had briefly existed and been crushed. His tryzub was an act of remembering — ornamental, deliberate, drawn in the art-nouveau-influenced graphic language of his era. Almost a hundred years later, that act is still relevant.

The back prints a digital map of Ukraine with the line "не забудем і не пробачим" — "we won't forget and we won't forgive." The phrase is from a song by Skofka, one of the most quoted lines in Ukrainian music since 2022, and it has become something Ukrainians say to each other plainly. Not as a slogan. As a position.

A hoodie gives that back print more room than a shirt does, and more weight. It's the piece you wear in the cold months — to protests, to trains, to the walk home — which is when this particular sentence tends to come to mind anyway.

Bytynskyi's graphic on the front. Skofka's words on the back. Ninety years apart, both saying the same thing about memory and refusal.

50% pre-shrunk cotton, 50% polyester, air-jet spun for softness without the pilling. Double-lined hood, matching drawstrings, front pouch pocket.

This isn't a graphic tribute. It's a piece of Ukrainian visual heritage carried forward by someone who knows exactly what it costs to keep saying.
