Getting to know UUA Velosport

UUA Velosport is a distinctive cycling-inspired clothing brand based in Kyiv, founded in 2011 as a collective focused on both cycling and art. The name UUA stands for Urban Underground Athletes/Artists, with the second "U" later replaced by the Ukrainian “Ю” to reflect the brand's roots.

The product range includes t-shirts, hoodies, shorts, caps, cycling caps, and musettes. Soon, they will expand their offerings to include cycling jackets and vests, catering to the needs of cyclists throughout the year.

A notable aspect of UUA Velosport is their commitment to local production. They strive to manufacture in Ukraine as much as possible and have engaged with contractors from regions significantly impacted by the ongoing war. For instance, they produced hoodies in Bucha, caps in Kharkiv, and the first batch of shorts in Mykolaiv. This dedication not only supports local economies but also fosters a sense of community resilience.

UUA Velosport is committed to creating meaningful products that reflect the spirit of their origins. They aim to offer more than just merchandise; they emphasize local craftsmanship and the narratives behind their creations, ensuring that each piece resonates with a sense of purpose and identity. Through UUA Velosport, cyclists can embrace apparel that contributes to the local culture and supports fellow Ukrainians.
