Founded in 1921 in the small Scottish town of Innerleithen, Ballantyne Cashmere is a prestigious men’s knitwear label which uses only first-rate natural cashmere yarns. Ballantyne Cashmere buys raw cashmere fibre from goat herds in Inner Mongolia and spins the yarn in Scotland. The meticulous care that goes into the selection of raw materials, crafted into everything from chunky cable knit pullovers to cashmere cardigans, has remained a stalwart hallmark of the label throughout its history. Dawson International, which currently owns the Ballantyne Cashmere brand, is based in Kinross, Tayside.
