About the brand
The Swiss brand Bally is expanding its trade horizons, although it has dictated its fashion traditions for more than 150 years in the world of European and global fashion.
The brand began its existence in the middle of the 19th century. Karl Franz Bally founded an enterprise for the production of elastic bands, which were used in tailoring. The venture turned out to be profitable, and Karl began to develop his business.

After analyzing the state of affairs in the Swiss footwear market in the 19th century, Karl Franz concluded that there was no domestic production of luxury footwear. The local nobility turned to designers from the world capitals of fashion France and Great Britain for luxury footwear. Thus, the niche of high-quality shoes for wealthy nobles was free from competitors. The Balli family launched a pilot version of luxury men's footwear, using elastic tape in the production, which laid the foundation for the entire family business.

The profit was unexpectedly high. The family business continued its development at its own factory for the production of men's and women's shoes. Production volumes grew every year, more and more labor was attracted, and the quality of the Swiss brand delighted buyers far beyond the borders of their native country. Bally shoes have become very recognizable thanks to the inserts from the same elastic band that started it all.

The shoe collections were spread far beyond the borders of Switzerland thanks to an extensive distribution network. The Bally family invested the bulk of their income in the development of family businesses and trading houses around the world, which brought in even greater profits.

The family business flourished even after the death of the founder. The father's business was continued by the sons.
The Bally brand has enriched not only the founding families, but also revealed to the world the talents of the great artists (Lauby, Bamberger, Holder and Vilemo) who began to work at the Bally production in the advertising of finished products.

The global crisis of the 1930s also affected Bally. Dealerships began to close all over the place, and production fell sharply as purchasing power plummeted. The second wave of fame for the family brand was brought by the founder's grandson, 20 years after the crisis.

Since 1950, Karl Franz Bally's business was continued by his grandson, releasing handmade shoes as part of the Scribe line. The development of multimedia technology has allowed buyers anywhere in the world to design their own pair of shoes according to their individual wishes. The price for such an individual pair started from several thousand dollars.

Competition in the global footwear market dictated the need to expand the range and produce leather accessories. This was the beginning of the production of leather bags for the Bally brand. Bally brand bags are recognizable due to the obligatory presence of red and white stripes, which correspond to the colors of the Swiss flag. These elements are found on almost all Bally accessories.

In the late 90s, at a family council, it was decided to sell the fashion heritage to an international American investment fund. Since then, retaining its individuality among other light industry goods, under the Bally brand, in addition to shoes and bags, men's and women's clothing collections have been produced. The change of the brand owner only strengthened the tradition of high quality production and restrained aristocratic design, designed for wealthy business buyers.

In 2008, the holder of the main shareholding of the brand changed again, now it is the Labelux Group. But more than a century of history and brand concept is preserved and promoted, positioning the Bally brand as an international company of business style and impeccable quality.
