ICXC NIKA Biruitor - Classic Sweatshirt

The Message

You may have seen this symbol on old churches, in icons of saints, or even on the backs of cars (especially here in Europe).

ICXC NIKA simply means Jesus Christ Conquers.

The IC and XC are the first and last letters in the Greek words for Jesus and Christ respectively. And NIKA is connected to the Greek word for victory.

Our Lord and Christ has overcome! He has won the victory. And He has given us the victory through His own sacrifice. By death he conquered death! Our King and High Priest is alive!

“If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins” (1 Cor 15:17). But Christ has risen, and, as fellow conquerors with Him, Christians “have passed from death to life” (1 John 3:14).

This design reminds us that we have the tools to walk in victory, not striving for victory. Fighting with the victor, not for ourselves. For everything of ourselves will pass way, but Him and His Word will not! (Matt 24:35) Amen 🙏

The Clothing

This is our classic, all-season, medium cut sweatshirt. If we would call this anything, this would be a ‘staple’ sweatshirt. The ‘old-faithful’ you throw on when you’re about to leave the house, or when you have guests on and don’t want to look like a complete mess. This is the one where as soon as you take it out of the packaging and put it on you'll think: "this is the comfiest, warmest, snuggliest thing I've ever worn!" We would recommend sizing up on this one to get a more relaxed fit (which is what we prefer), but you do you.  Again though, check the sizing chart.

The fabric depends on the colour… but you’re going to either be 80% Cotton, 20% Recycled Polyester, or 70% Cotton, 30% Recycled Polyester. And either way, it’s going to weigh 280GSM.

We've tried to make sure the colours match as close as to reality as possible; but with different devices, lighting, cameras etc. there may be some slight variation.

Shipping & Delivery

We have flat-rate global shipping. No matter how much you buy, you'll be paying the same great deal! (We've tried our hardest to get it down as low as possible without going in to debt with every order)

If you're in Europe - €6.50. (Specifically: Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom)

If you're anywhere else in the world that we sell to - €10.

We've tried to keep this as simple as possible, as well as encouraging people from the same church/small-group/school/university to buy together to save on shipping (a bit of an environmental benefit there as well).

If you're in Europe, you can expect to get your products between 5-10 business days.

If you're anywhere else in the world that we sell to - you can expect to get your products between 9-14 business days.
