Glowing red, Great Wall grey, sky blue and snow white are the main colors of the uniforms for Beijing 2022. He Yang, the designer of the uniform, said, the black and glowing red uniform for the staff reflects their dedication and enthusiasm; the Great Wall grey, also a color used in Beijing 2008, represents the objectivity and fairness of technical officials; the sky blue shows the youthful vigor of volunteers; the snow-white, a harmonizing color, symbolizes good luck as a Chinese saying goes, "A timely snow promises a good harvest."

Considerations of environmental protection and sustainability are integrated into the design, production, and distribution of the uniforms. For example, the yarns used in equipment storage bags are made from recycled plastics in an endeavor to hold a green, environment-friendly and sustainable Winter Olympics.
