The telnyashka has a long history in Russian naval dress. On 19 August 1874, an imperial regulation formally established a blue-and-white striped undershirt as part of the uniform for lower-ranking personnel of the Russian Imperial Navy. The colours were associated with the St Andrew's naval ensign, helping the striped shirt develop into a distinctive symbol of Russian naval identity.
Over subsequent decades, the telnyashka became strongly associated with Russian and Soviet naval personnel and later influenced military clothing traditions beyond the navy. This MIL-TEC replica captures the classic naval version, making it a useful addition to a period impression, military collection or wardrobe inspired by traditional maritime clothing.
