"Schiesser is quality" - the history of the company from Lake Constance is indeed a story of quality and innovation: just 20 years after its founding, "Schiesser jerseys" were already widely known, and at the 1900 Paris World's Fair, company founder Jacques Schiesser received the "Grand Prix" for his "braided" and "damask" jerseys. Schiess was always a step ahead of the competition: it responded intelligently and experimentally to shortages of raw materials, for example, by resorting to nettle or paper fabric. Until today, one is successful by combining the company tradition with contemporary influences.
