The Ballantyne name has been linked to precious yarns since 1800, when the Scot Henry Ballantyne established himself in tweed trade and tartan workmanship that started to be know and appreciated in their softer versions as well.The use of the intarsia technique became more common over time, with handmade knitwear and sophisticated workmanship that was unmatched in the world, making the brand a universally recognized icon of style and quality.

Ballantyne today
Today, Ballantyne is headed by Fabio Gatto, who became the president of the company after gaining thirty years of comprehensive experience in the fashion industry – a career marked by passion and a unique insight into the world of fabrics. Already involved in the restyling of famous names in the Italian fashion scene, Fabio Gatto leads today with a desire for comprehensive change. He is at the wheel of a brand whose need to reposition itself and aim at modern consumers seeking products characterized by features of the Ballantyne brand, has led to the revamping of the company structure.
