Cossack Long Sleeve

This long sleeve features an illustration of a Ukrainian Cossack, made by artist Mari Kinovych for our Explaining Ukraine article on the topic. 

Cossacks were a semi-nomadic group of warriors who were the early pioneers of Ukrainian independence. Deeply ingrained in Ukrainian national mythology, the distinctive image of these freedom fighters can be seen today in paintings, statues, manuscripts, and now, on Kyiv Independent merch.
