At the largest and most prestigious competitions, such as the World and European Championships, Russian Paralympic athletes wear the colors of the Russian tricolor from Forward.

The Russian Paralympic Committee and Forward have already developed sketches of equipment for the upcoming XVI Paralympic Summer Games in Tokyo, taking into account the requirements set out in the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport in the case between WADA and RUSADA.

Forward is a manufacturer of sportswear for national teams with extensive experience and history, so we are confident that we will be able to provide a uniform in which athletes will adequately represent our country!
