The article is dedicated to the development of an anthropometric typology of cadets from the southern and northern regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan based on a comparative analysis of their physical development indicators. The aim of the study is to identify the morphological and functional parameters of cadets and determine their regional differences in order to develop a structure of anthropometric characteristics for designing uniforms for students of military educational institutions in Kazakhstan.During the research, anthropometric measurements of basic physical indicators were conducted among 16–17-year-old cadets. Methods of mathematical statistics and cluster analysis were applied to determine the dimensional typology of students in military lyceums. The analysis of anthropometric indicators revealed significant differences in the physical development of cadets from different regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Specific constitutional types were identified, which are associated with climatic and regional conditions. The results of the study are of high practical significance and can be applied in the light and textile industries in the design and production of uniforms for students of military lyceums in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The findings serve as a basis for developing national standards for body size characteristics, contributing to the modernization of military uniform production and improving its quality by taking into account the anthropometric features of cadets in Kazakhstan’s military schools.
