On Wednesday, October 9, Adidas and the Ukrainian Football Association began their cooperation. New home and away kits of the Ukrainian national teams for the 2024/2025 season were also presented.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to the UAF press service.
According to the UAF press service, from now on the German brand is the exclusive supplier of uniforms for all national teams, including men's, women's and youth teams.
The peculiarity of using the form of this company is that it was Adidas that developed the exclusive form for the national team of Ukraine at the home Euro 2012. The UAF collaborated with the German brand from 2009 to 2016, and from 2017 to 2024 the main team of the country dressed in the form of the Spanish brand Joma.
«Working towards a common goal, this long-term partnership emphasizes Adidas's involvement in the further development of football in Ukraine and demonstrates the UAF's ambitions to develop talents and promote Ukrainian football in the international arena,— the UAF noted.
Yes, the new home and away kits of the national team with the iconic three stripes on the shoulders and the slogan “Glory to Ukraine!” on the back reflect the colors of the Ukrainian flag. At the same time, this kit celebrates the connection between Ukrainian culture and football, giving every fan the opportunity to feel it.
“It is a great honor for us to return to the adidas family. The association already has a successful history of cooperation with the company, because adidas developed the exclusive kit in which the national team played at Euro 2012. We are committed to achieving the highest level of competition in all our national teams and look forward to working with a leading kit supplier such as adidas to achieve this goal,” said UAF President Andriy Shevchenko.
