The kit is made in the traditional style, reflecting the victory colours of the railroad workers. The home kit has green shirts and red shorts. The away kit is completely white. The shirts are provided with the Aeroready technology, which absorbs moisture and dries quickly to keep you feeling fresh and comfortable even in difficult conditions.

The colors of the kits of Lokomotiv's predecessor teams - Kazanka and KOR - were very different from the modern red-green colors. The 'railroad workers' of those years wore blue shirts and white shorts. But with the emergence of new sports society called Lokomotiv, the team's kit became red - with a wide white longitudinal stripe. With this kit the 'railroad workers' first appeared on the opening day of the 1936 season, and in some matches a steam locomotive also appeared inside the strip.

There was nothing unexpected and unique in the choice of red color by the Soviet team in the 1930s, but the longitudinal stripes became the distinctive feature of Lokomotiv.

At some point, after the war, it was decided to abandon the white color on shirts, but in 1954 it returned again - and Lokomotiv's kit received a new look, which eventually became no less significant for the team than the very first one. The shirt sleeves and shorts became white, which resembled a little the manner, in which Arsenal (London) sewed their uniform.

However, red was not irreplaceable, and if necessary, it was changed to any other color. A well-known case was the final of the USSR Cup-1957 against the red-and-white Spartak that the 'railroad workers' played in blue. However, that was just a single moment, like another match that Lokomotiv played in yellow.

In the late 70s, the team wore red adidas shirts. In 1984, white longitudinal stripes with red stars appeared on the kit.
In 1994, the club signed a contract with Umbro, and Lokomotiv's kit changed beyond recognition. A yellow transverse stripe with the sponsor's name was added to the shirts, the white color remained in the background, and the red color appeared in the form of chaotically scattered spots.

Like today, Lokomotiv's kit changed every season in the 90s, so in 1995 the yellow color disappeared from the railwaymen's kit, giving way to black color, which quite successfully complemented the pattern on the top of the shirt. And in 1996, the players again put on kits similar to the ones they had in the 1950s and 1960s: red shirts, white sleeves. And it was in this kit that they won their first Russian Cup.

The Diadora company kit, in which Loko performed in 2000, was also made in the same color scheme, while in 2001 the shirts were already completely red with black lines and with white elements.

The green color appeared on Lokomotiv's kit in 2002. By that time, the fans were already wearing red and green scarves that they produced themselves, so the club decided to use this idea. In the first title-winning season, green, however, appeared only on the name of the sponsor and on the numbers of the players, while in the second title-winning season in 2004, green color was used on shirt collars.

For the Russian Super Cup game Lokomotiv came out in full-fledged red-green kit and thus acquired new club colors. In the future, the combination of red and green on the playing kit changed quite a lot, until the 2012/13 season when it was decided to return to the winning colors of 2004.

Once in Loko’s history the team even had gold shirts: the team wore them in 2007 to celebrate the victory in the Russian Cup.

In the 2014/15 season, green became the dominant color in the home kit. Red elements remained on the sides. Shorts and socks were also made in red. It was in this kit that Lokomotiv won the long-awaited trophy - the Russian Cup.
The away kit was white with small green elements on the side of the shirts and shorts.

Lokomotiv’s 2015/16 home and away shirts were made in several shades of the club's two traditional colors - red and green. The home kit consisted of a red shirt, green shorts and red socks. For the first time in the history of the club, the away kit was completely green. The third kit was white.

Lokomotiv 2016/17 main kit was green for the first time in history. The away kit was traditionally white, while the third kit was grey. Also there were 3 different versions of the goalkeeper's kit - black, blue and red.

The home kit for the 2017/18 season was made in the traditional color combination of recent seasons: a green shirt, red shorts and green socks. The second kit consisted of white and red colors, but its main element was the club's retro emblem. When creating the third kit, it was decided to move away from the traditional practice. Instead of a contrasting shade in relation to the other two kits, it was decided to chose the familiar combination of the main colors of the Russian Railways brand.

For the 2018/19 home kit, red was chosen as the main color. All decorative structural elements of the kit were made in green and white colors.
The main white color of the away kit remained unchanged, but we tried to organically saturate it with the presence of two other main colors of the club: green and red.
The third set used a new, bright and unexpected color - a purple shirt with a monochrome metallic logo, white shorts and purple socks.

The home kit for the 2019/20 season was made in traditional red and green colors. When creating an away kit, the designers were inspired by the attributes of the railways. The third kit was produced in graphite color and had additional elements in the traditional red color on the top of the shirts.

Moscow

Moscow's fifth wheel back in Soviet times, Lokomotiv spent decades eating the leftovers of Spartak, Dynamo, CSKA, even Torpedo, but in post-USSR Russia they have won more than enough titles and have succeeded enough at international level to deserve, beyond the slightest doubt, a spot on Moscow's football podium, next to Spartak and CSKA.

History

Football Club Lokomotiv Moscow were founded in 1922 and their original name was “Kazanka”, which was how the Moscow-Kazan railway was called. Next year they were renamed “KOR” (Club of October Revolution), which lasted until 1931, when “Kazanka” made its comeback. Since January 1936, the team has been known as Lokomotiv, a name that had the approval of the Soviet Ministry of Transportation, the owner of the club, through the State Railways.
There exist some football teams with the name 'Lokomotiv/Lokomotive', for example Lokomotive Leipzig, which has a historically background of the teams being associated with the railroad industry. As many football teams, also this one was originally founded by industry workers.

Ups and downs

Lokomotiv Moscow Fc 1920 Kitsempty Spaces The Blog 2018

Lokomotiv won only two titles in Soviet times, their best finish in the Championship was second, in 1959, but they can pride themselves of winning the first ever Soviet Cup in 1936, a success they repeated in 1957.

All those decades that other Moscow greats were winning trophies fighting against each other and also against Dynamo Kyiv, Soviet Union's most successful club, Lokomotiv were struggling to establish themselves in the Top League, being relegated a total of seven times, last one in 1989.

The eighties were particularly bad for them, getting relegated in 1980, finally managing to return to the Top League in 1988, only to experience another painful relegation at the end of 1989.

Despite their failure, the club stack with Yuri Syomin, or Semin, as he's usually called in the West. A decent striker in his playing days, Semin had taken charge as Lokomotiv's head coach in 1986, when the team were still fighting to return to the Top League. With a small break in 1991, he was meant to stay at the club until 2005, practically two full decades. By the time he left to coach the national team of Russia, his Lokomotiv had earned a place in the country's Top 3, along with Spartak and CSKA.

Building a name at international level

They won their first Russian title in 1996, lifting the trophy of the Russian Cup, a success they repeated next year. In 1998 they started building a name at international level, reaching the semi-finals of the Cup Winners' Cup, where Stuttgart proved too good for them, winning in both legs. Amazingly, next season Lokomotiv reached again the semi-finals of the very same competition. It was Lazio's turn to hurt the Russians, even though they failed to beat them in any of the two games, drawing 1-1 in Moscow, and 0-0 in Rome.

The new millennium brought two more back-to-back triumphs in the Russian Cup, but the best was yet to come; Lokomotiv entered their new stadium in July 2002, they became the first club in Russia to have a truly modern and football-specific home, and they combined that historic season with winning their first Championship title, putting an end to more than 65 years of waiting.

With Semin still leading the team from the bench, they went on to win a second Championship in 2004, and reach the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League, where, once again, it was the away goals rule that hurt them, beating Monaco 2-1 in Moscow, but losing 1-0 in the second leg.

Alongside Semin, it is Dmitri Loskov, Lokomotiv's iconic number 10 since 1997, who deserves more credit than what anyone could describe for the team's successes. When he left in 2007, he had won everything with them, and maybe most of all, the eternal gratitude, respect, and love of Lokomotiv's fans. He returned to the club in 2010, aged 36, played in several more games until 2013 when he retired, or so everyone thought, since in February 2017, at 43, he returned to his beloved Lokomotiv once again, signing a contract as a player, but also working as Semin's assistant, after the legendary coach had returned to the club himself in 2016.

Lokomotiv's beautiful stadium since 2002.

Lokomotiv won another Russian Cup in 2007, and a sixth one in 2015, but in the Championship they have been struggling to finish higher than fourth, something that has happened only once. Even so, they have earned the right to be considered a great among Moscow's greats, among Russia's greats actually, since after 2007, more clubs from other cities have been challenging the Muscovite teams for titles and glory.

Logo

A big red Cyrillic “Л” (L) is the dominant figure in Lokomotiv's logo, with a green locomotive and the Russian Railways' emblem (at the bottom) also fittingly included. The logo has hardly been changed since 1936 (see an old version to the right), with practically all new touches ever since, having to do with updating the look of the letter “Л” and the locomotive, but not really altering the character of the emblem.
