Vass has a deep heritage in the world of clothing, footwear and materials dating back to the 1950s, and a legacy of excellence in the manufacturing of textiles and footwear, and with over 60 years of experience comes a great deal of expertise ensuring our products are innovative, reliable and designed to suit the modern work place.
From lightweight waterproof/breathable clothing to extremely heavy-duty waterproof garments which withstand very high water pressures e.g jet washing and other consistently wet environments.
Chris and Marcus Vass are responsible for the ever-growing selection of products that we see in the waterproof garment world. Year on year, their passion, will and innovation have driven the brand to being a first choice when it comes to items like waders and waterproof clothing.
Their father, Niels Vass, was the founder of the company around 70 years ago. It all started with footwear and quickly progressed to textiles, with his influence being significant in some of the world’s largest fabric mills. His entrepreneurial spirit, creativity and drive led to forays into the world of interior fabrics, opulent interior wall coverings and even yacht decor, forging a reputation that straddled many markets. This approach branched into PPE, and sportswear too.
Demand led to expansion for the brand, with international depots servicing a diverse clientele and a growing customer base. As a brand at the peak of innovation, it chose not to rest on its laurels or stand still; as time passed, it found its expertise with fabrics and materials useful in military applications, as well as commercial sailing, recreational fishing and other sports: Mizuno Sportswear was a leading customer through this exciting period for the company.
