Minimal logoPremium cotton9 colourwaysS to 4XL
The essentials: a name shortened by commentators until it fits in two syllables — the mark of athletes nobody calls anything else. This tee carries LOMA in white capitals, run on into a block in the colours of Ukraine. Premium cotton 180 gsm, heat transfer print. 9 colourways, 7 sizes S to 4XL, €29, free shipping.
Four letters and two bands of colour. It is the most discreet of every tee in the catalogue that carries a fighter's name.
Nothing on it says sport. People who follow boxing read Loma instantly; everyone else sees a well-drawn logo.
The flag that finishes the word
Look at the end of the A. Its final stroke is not drawn: it is formed by the angled cut of the blue and yellow block that follows. The letter and the flag share the same edge.
This is not a flag set beside a name: it is a flag that completes the name. The device is economical — no border, no frame — and that is what gives it the look of a kit-maker's mark rather than merchandise.
Loma, the shorthand that became the name
Vasyl Lomachenko is a Ukrainian fighter whose name, awkward to say outside his own country, was cut down by commentators and gyms to a single word: Loma.
That is the sign of a particular kind of standing — athletes nobody bothers to name in full. The tee plays on it: it does not spell out the whole name, because the people it speaks to do not need it.
Lomachenko is known for footwork rated among the most technical of his generation: he circles an opponent until he stands at an angle from which no counter is possible. Movement boxing, not power boxing.
The record behind the four letters
Lomachenko came out of an amateur career of 396 wins and 1 loss, with two Olympic titles — Beijing 2008 and London 2012. As a professional he took the WBO featherweight title in his third fight, in 2014, then became a champion in a third division in only twelve fights: nobody has done it faster. Which is why one word suffices — the full name is no longer needed.
What it looks like on
The artwork forms a horizontal band centred on the chest. The capitals are compact and very heavy, sans serif.
The white of the lettering and the two flag bands carry on the dark colourways; on the light shades it is the blue and yellow that hold the artwork. A light worn texture runs through the flat areas, which keeps it from looking like a sticker.
Premium cotton, crew neck, short sleeves, straight cut. Plain back.
Nine colourways
Choosing: black for maximum contrast, navy for a natural match with the blue of the flag, heather grey if you want it quiet.
The detail that matters: the print is applied by heat transfer onto a PET film. On a logo like this one, everything rests on the angled cut between the letter and the flag: that process is what gives a perfectly clean edge between the white, the blue and the yellow. The print stands up to wear and does not fade easily in the wash. Care: machine wash at 30 °C / 86 °F inside out, no fabric softener, no tumble dryer, do not iron the print.
