History

Tisza is a heritage brand, established in 1942 in Martfű, where the railway, public and water traffic meet, next to the Tisza river. During the 1950s and 1960s the factory produced shoes for the domestic market under Cikta Rt....

… but expanded in 1971 with a new corporate logo and started to design and manufacture sport shoes, which very soon had a cult following by young Hungarians. The 'T' branded shoe was born at the start of the 1970’s when many new sport shoe models were developed, some of these styles still remain to this day and have been updated with a contemporary touch.

One of the first shoes, which the Tisza factory produced, was a vulcanized rubber soled gym shoe, manufactured in many colors and fabrics and was suitable for many different sporting activities. The innovative design combined with good craftsmanship brought international success for the Tisza brand.

The production of the traditional gym shoes slowly stopped in the 1990s.

With 40 years of experience in manufacture and design of handmade shoes a new era started in 2003. The Clash company bought the rights of the Tisza trademark and after detailed researches they started to produce a range of distinctive sneaker collections for women, men and also expanded the brand by adding fashion accessories and clothing lines.

Today, the Tisza brand with its iconic 'T' logo is synonymous with culture, contemporary urbanism, good craftsmanship and a brand identity now expanded into the digital realm.
