The Swiatoslaw PVC Patch from M-Tac® is known for the saying "Idu Na Wy," which over a thousand years ago struck fear into the hearts of enemies and still enjoys popularity today. It is now frequently worn by Ukrainian patriots who are passionate about their country's history and fully understand its significance. Our patch portrays the figure of Swiatoslaw Igorovich, the Grand Prince of Kievan Rus, who left a lasting mark on Ukraine's history. The expressive face, armor details, and weaponry reflect the grandeur of this ruler, showcasing his bravery and leadership qualities. During his reign, Swiatoslaw spent most of his time conducting military campaigns, achieving impressive victories over his enemies, and gaining significant experience in military matters. In the historical source known as the "Tale of Bygone Years," we can read that when embarking on another campaign, Swiatoslaw sent a messenger to the enemy with a single message: "Idu Na Wy," which literally meant "I am coming against you." This simple but bold ultimatum focused the enemy's attention and forced them to confront his forces in one place. As a result, Swiatoslaw's warriors could defeat the enemy in one decisive battle, avoiding prolonged and exhausting skirmishes with separate units. Our patch takes the shape of Swiatoslaw's double-headed emblem, which was the first known symbol of the Kievan princes. It's worth noting that the modern coat of arms of Ukraine is often considered an evolution of this very symbol. Currently, the double-headed prince serves as an identifying mark for the Special Operations Forces of Ukraine. Today, the expression "Idu Na Wy" has become not only the motto of these forces but also a symbol of bravery, courage, and nobility for all those who defend Ukraine against invaders. Our patch is made from high-quality PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material using advanced 3D technology, giving it a raised appearance and an incredibly realistic expression. It can be easily attached to clothing or equipment using Velcro, making it an exceptionally practical accessory.
