Zeha Berlin was founded in Thuringia (the central part of Germany) in 1897, and by the 1950s had risen to become the flagship for sport-shoe manufacture, as well as the official sports shoe maker of the legendary GDR Olympic team.
When Germany won the World Cup in 1954 Zeha football boots were on their feet. Renowned for their research, innovation and improvisation (leather was scarce in East Germany), Zeha was ‘acquired’ by the state in 1972, when it became a nationally-owned company.
