FC Sibir. Reviving traditions
Football beyond the Ural Mountains is an entirely different game — nine months of freezing temperatures, biting frost, and pitches that are anything but pristine. But these tough conditions shape an unbreakable team spirit and deep-rooted fan loyalty. Here, even the challenges become strengths, turning adversity into part of the football experience.
This unique identity is reflected in the new brand strategy and design by Quberten studio.
Logo
The design pays homage to the club’s golden era in 2010, when Sibir reached the Russian Cup final and made its UEFA Europa League debut, marking the occasion with a historic home victory over Dutch giants PSV. The bold eagle emblem from that time became a fan-favorite, symbolizing a breakthrough in the club’s identity and success on the field.
The rebranding also draws inspiration from Major League Soccer (MLS) clubs, which have redefined traditional bold aesthetics to create fresh and modern visual identities.
