YASSA was a sportswear and sports equipment brand from Yugoslavia.
The textile company Varaždinska industrija svile, based in Varaždin, SR Croatia, was first created in 1929. A new production facility was built in 1957, when the company was called Varaždinska industrija svile, konfekcije i kišobrana. With the YASSA brand (the acronym meant Serbo-Croatian: Jugoslavenski asortiman sportskih artikala; Serbo-Croatian Cyrillic: Југословенски асортиман спортских артикала; English: Yugoslav Assortment of Sport Articles) they became one the largest sportswear manufacturers in SFR Yugoslavia. The company was renamed to Vis Konfekcija in 1995.[1]
YASSA was the partner of Yugoslav participants during various Olympic Games, and its name appeared at numerous domestic and international sporting events such as: the Olympic Games in Montreal, Moscow, Lake Placid, Sarajevo, Seoul, and the Mediterranean Games in Split.[2]
The company's logo and visual identity was created in 1974 by Boris Ljubičić, who became one of the most prominent Croatian graphics designers.[3]
The Yassa brand was featured as one of the most recognizable Yugoslav brands in an art exhibition called Yugo.Logo, organized in 2023 in Zagreb by the Croatian Designer Society.[4]
