UÇK Baby Sweater – Quarter-Zip Pullover with Embroidered Emblem
At a glance: grey marl baby quarter-zip sweater in 80% cotton and 20% polyester, with a zip at the stand-up collar and the UÇK emblem embroidered on the left chest. Three sizes: 6-12, 12-18 and 18-24 months (approx. EU 74/80 to 86/92). Unisex, shipped from Germany.
Small, warm and full of meaning: this sweater carries the emblem of the Ushtria Çlirimtare e Kosovës – a piece of heritage for the youngest members of Albanian and Kosovar families across Europe. For a new arrival, a first birthday, Independence Day on 17 February or Flag Day on 28 November: a gift that parents and grandparents love alike.
The design in detail
- Embroidered emblem: red and yellow UÇK emblem with the black double-headed eagle – embroidered rather than printed, so nothing peels or cracks
- Quarter-zip cut: the neckline opens wide, which makes pulling it over a baby's head much easier
- Stand-up collar: keeps neck and nape warm on cooler days, can be worn open or closed
- Ribbed cuffs and hem – they don't ride up and keep their shape
- Grey marl: goes with jeans, joggers and almost any baby outfit
- Unisex: for boys and girls
Fabric & construction
- Fabric: 80% cotton / 20% polyester
- Why this blend: the high cotton content feels comfortable and breathable, while the polyester keeps the fabric in shape and easy to care for – ideal for baby clothes that go through the wash a lot
- Closure: zip at the stand-up collar (quarter-zip)
- Finish: embroidered emblem on the left chest

Choosing a size
If your child is between two sizes or the sweater should last all winter, choose the larger size – the cuffs are easy to roll up. As a gift for a newborn, 6-12 months is the best choice, so the baby gets plenty of wear out of it.
Care
- Wash at 30 °C inside out, with the zip closed
- Do not iron directly over the emblem
- Air dry – this keeps the embroidery and shape looking good for longest
- Please also follow the instructions on the care label

Frequently asked questions
Which size should I choose for my baby?
Go by height: up to approx. 80 cm choose 6-12 months, up to approx. 86 cm 12-18 months, up to approx. 92 cm 18-24 months. If in doubt, size up – babies grow fast.
Is the emblem printed or embroidered?
Embroidered. Embroidery is more durable than a print: it can't peel or crack and still looks good after many washes.
What does UÇK stand for?
UÇK is short for Ushtria Çlirimtare e Kosovës, the Kosovo Liberation Army. It is often also written UCK or UQK. For many families in the diaspora, the emblem with the black double-headed eagle on red is a symbol of remembrance of Kosovo's history.
Why a zip at the collar?
Babies don't like having something pulled tightly over their head. The zip lets the neckline open wide, so dressing and undressing is quicker and calmer.
Is it suitable for boys and girls?
Yes, the cut and colour are unisex.
Is it a good gift?
Yes – for a newborn, a first birthday, a family visit or the Albanian national holidays. Many customers buy it for nieces, nephews or grandchildren.
How long does shipping take?
Within Germany usually 2–4 working days, abroad mostly 2–8 working days. Orders from €35 ship free within Germany.
