Every story begins with a first step.
Ours began with a friendship — between two women who see the world differently, yet somehow perfectly complement each other.

TUAS was born from countless conversations that always circled back to one question: What if shoes could be more than something you wear?

What if they could reflect who we are — our moods, our moments, our stories — and move with us through late nights, new beginnings, and everything in between?

That question became the foundation of everything we do. TUAS was built on instinct and intention — a belief that shoes should feel personal, yet full of life, energy, and emotion. Pieces that move with you and remind you who you are.

When we returned to Portugal, we found our place — in Oliveira de Azeméis, at the heart of a region where artistry runs deep and time still holds value. Here, every pair is brought to life through dozens of careful steps, shaped by skilled hands and guided by intention. Nothing rushed, nothing wasted — only what feels right.

We don’t follow seasons. We follow purpose.
We design with care, produce with consciousness, and craft with time — so that every pair carries the meaning, emotion, and individuality it was born from.

Because our heritage isn’t measured in years. It’s measured in intention.
In the patience it takes to make something right.
In the women who wear TUAS and make each pair their own.

TUAS will always be about meaning.
Two friends who believed that doing things differently could create something lasting.
Who still dream, still build, and still believe in the beauty of slowing down.
Because every step matters. Every choice has weight. And every pair of TUAS shoes carries a story — yours, ours, and the many still to come.
