Vyshyvankas for boys are not only an attractive piece of clothing but a comfortable, practical one. Buying something like this for your child connects them from an early age to their own culture, its traditions and a respect for the country's history; it plants respect for their ancestors and their family line. The distant ancestors of the Ukrainian people believed that the right pattern on a boy's shirt served as a protective talisman against evil spirits and the «evil eye». There was also a belief in the embroidered shirt as a conduit of inner strength that protected its owner from all manner of misfortune. In those days, as today, particular importance was given not only to the fabric a piece was sewn from but to the embroidery.

​What the embroidered ornaments on shirts mean

• Absolutely every pattern embroidered on a shirt carries its own energy and meaning:
• Sometimes the ornament includes the outlines of plants, hop or oak leaves for instance;
• The most common embroidery for little men is geometric lines and shapes;
• Every pattern is made with a technique tied to the ancient mythology of the Slavic peoples;
• The principal images are the serpent (standing for the element of water) and the eight-pointed flower (standing for the sun). Such symbols belonged to the realm of fatherly care and kindness;
• The diamond was especially popular, as it helped the wearer of the shirt come into his strength as a man.
• Every growing boy will feel very comfortable and at ease in a vyshyvanka, as it lets the body «breathe» and does not restrict movement.

The «Vyshyvanochka.ua» store offers modern children's vyshyvankas made from natural materials. Whether or not you believe in folk omens, clothing like this will always guard your child against illness and any form of harm.

What to look for when choosing

Our experts have put together a few tips for parents who want to buy protective traditional clothing for their children:

• A genuine vyshyvanka is made from natural cloth (linen, silk, cotton). This lets the skin «breathe», ensuring good heat exchange and air circulation;
• In some cases a certain proportion of synthetic fibre is acceptable, as it makes the piece easier to care for and extends its life;
• On-trend pieces may come not only in the traditional loose cut but also as T-shirts, blouses, tunics and more;
• Pay attention to the quality of the embroidery on the piece. Machine embroidery is the most practical choice: it does not distort after washing and does not lose its colour.
• When choosing a traditional garment for your little one, keep their comfort in mind.
