During this journey, they discovered the works of Volodymyr Pidhirnyak, who authored a book on the art of coding in Ukrainian embroidery. Volodymyr’s grandmother, a cryptographer for the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA), encoded secret messages in embroidered patterns worn by couriers, slipping them past Soviet intelligence unnoticed. In 2009, Volodymyr visited Ternopil and conducted a workshop for us on this unique coding technique. Since then, we’ve encoded countless names, wishes, and prayers into our embroidery. The ornament of the men’s embroidered shirt NEZLAMNI (“Unbreakable”) carries words that have always been a spiritual foundation for Ukrainians: “Struggle” and “Freedom.” The model is wearing size L and is 175 cm tall. If the size you need is not in stock, we will gladly fulfil your order as quickly as possible.
