The BALLY Company was founded in 1851 by Carl Franz Bally, when he first started to make shoes in Schönenwerd, Switzerland. BALLY first started to gain fame with shoes; followed by aggressive marketing in France, Italy, and all over Europe. The philosophy of BALLY ‘seeking the highest quality’ is what made BALLY to become one of the high fashion brands of today. Under the philosophy, “to make only the best”, BALLY has expanded its business to handbags, accessories, and RTW. BALLY continues to stand as a classy, luxury and traditional brand.
