Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) — The Uzbekistan national football team, which has qualified for the FIFA World Cup finals for the first time in its history, will compete wearing kits from the 7Saber brand, the Uzbekistan Football Association has announced.

Since 2019, the national team’s equipment had been supplied by the German company Jako. Uzbek athletes are already familiar with 7Saber sportswear — they wore it at the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics (held in 2021) and at the Paris 2024 Games.

The brand 7Saber was founded in 2019 by Otabek Umarov, former president of the Triathlon Federation.

Umarov created a graphic element based on globally recognizable icons representing various sports. He currently serves as First Deputy Chairman of the National Olympic Committee.

This marks the first time Uzbekistan has reached the final stage of the FIFA World Cup, which will take place in 2026 in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
