Russian Telnyashka Long Sleeve Striped T-Shirt

The Russian Telnyashka is an iconic long sleeve striped military shirt.

Military Undershirt Heritage

The Russian Telnyashka is a renowned horizontal striped undershirt worn across Russian naval, airborne, and ground units. Known colloquially as the telnik, this military staple was first standardised in naval dress regulations before becoming standard issue across multiple branches. It serves reliably as a functional thermal base layer or a standalone utility top.

Substantial 240gsm Cotton Build

Made from 240 g/m² 100% cotton, the tight single-jersey knit offers natural breathability and flexible stretch without synthetic fibres. The dense cotton structure retains its shape and provides effective thermal regulation against the skin during demanding outdoor activities.

Practical Crew Neck Design

Constructed with a classic crew neckline and reinforced seams, this shirt maintains structural durability through routine machine washing. The horizontal yarn-dyed stripes deliver crisp visual contrast that resists fading during heavy wear.

Layer this durable striped shirt under outdoor gear or wear it standalone for dependable everyday style.
