Symbolics

In the history of FC "Kryvbas" there were five logos.

The first is from 1989. Until now, in the Soviet championships (for more than 30 years), the club performed without official symbols. In the fall of 89, one of the Baltic states produced the premiere official pennant of "Kryvbas" with just such an emblem.

The second - from 1993. The famous Kryvyi Rih football collector Mykola Nesmiyan modernized the first logo, making it more attractive. The updated symbology was used in local football guides in 1993, 1994 and 1997, in the city's football newspaper Time Out, and on metal badges.

The third - from 1996. During the presidency of Vyacheslav Chernov, the team acquired a new emblem, the author of which was Oleg Vakhitov. This logo was the first to be applied to the game uniform of Kryvbas.

The fourth - since 1998. This is the most recognizable symbol of the club, because it was the main one for 22 long years. Its developer is Yuriy Rasputin, the long-time head of the Kryvbas press service.

The fifth is from 2020. A slight modernization of the logo with the inscription of the year of the club's revival - the second date of birth of "Kryvbas".

Stripes on the club emblem symbolize liquid metal in the form of fittings. When a hot wire collides with a soccer ball, it does not pierce, but goes around it. Thereby creating a composition symbolizing steel power and iron character. As you know, it is impossible to pick up hot metal just like that with bare hands.

Nowadays, stripes are an integral part of club symbols. They are used on paraphernalia, posters and game uniforms. Numbers of football players are made in the Kryvbas style.

Slogans of ultras became the slogans of the revived "Kryvbas". Phrases are flaunted in social networks and on players' T-shirts "Our name is Kryvbas" and "Kryvbas - This is Us".
