Ballin is the leading manufacturer and marketer of better men's dress slacks in North America. Founded as a local interest in the Montreal area by Charles Balinsky (known to most as Chic Ballin) in 1946, the company grew under his leadership as it expanded into the broader Canadian market, always keeping the focus on what they knew best. This philosophy has dominated Ballin until the present day, and men's trousers are still its only product.
  

From the start, Mr. Ballin's focus was quality. From piece goods to manufacturing and right through to shelf presentation, only the best would do. Today Ballin boasts a large team of engineers and quality assurance personnel who work to ensure that quality is foremost in the minds of all Ballin employees. This forms the starting point for the product that Ballin is proud to deliver.
 

Joseph, Chic's son, has headed Ballin for over 15 years now. Under his leadership, the company has expanded internationally, and is now a staple in the better men's business in North America. Distribution has also recently begun in the UK and Asia. Joseph lives in Montreal, but travels frequently, working with customers and suppliers on business ventures throughout the world. His passion has always been the product, and that is what keeps the whole Ballin team focused on bringing out the next innovation before others have even conceived of what it might be.
 

Joseph's son Ronald (RonnieB) has been with Ballin for 7 years now, and lives in New York, where he heads up the Ballin International business. He has brought a whole new focus on technology and modernity to the company, which can be felt in all aspects of the business. RonnieB works closely with his father Joseph today, as the 2 of them lead the company onward and upward.
