Cashmere

Cashmere is a noble natural fiber renowned for its exceptional softness, insulating warmth, and remarkable lightness. We select only the finest grades to ensure unparalleled comfort and performance. From this precious material, we create garments that embody the purity of nature and the enduring character of our aesthetic—timeless pieces designed to accompany you effortlessly and to express their quality through their very presence.

Silk

Silk is a living fiber, celebrated for its natural luster and unmistakably soft, refined touch. At BALENTES, we combine it with other noble materials to enhance lightness, fluidity, and understated elegance. Silk imparts luminosity without opulence and movement with intention—resulting in a fabric that breathes alongside you, elevating every gesture with effortless grace.

Wool

Merino Extrafine Supergeelong is an exceptional wool, renowned for its extraordinary softness, lightness, and purity. Sourced exclusively from the first shearings of young Merino lambs, it possesses an enveloping, almost velvety hand feel that delivers natural warmth without added weight.

We select this refined fiber for its understated nobility and its remarkable ability to conform seamlessly to the body. From it, we create garments that not only convey elegance on your behalf, but also offer a level of comfort and intimacy that feels akin to a second skin.

Leather

The leather we select at BALENTES is chosen for its durability, refined texture, and its exceptional ability to develop character over time. For our saddles, we work exclusively with noble, breathable leathers that adapt to both rider and horse, evolving with each use and preserving the narrative of every journey.

Each saddle is crafted from a profound dedication to achieving the ideal equilibrium between artisanal mastery and technical precision. Designed for those who experience the equestrian world not merely as a discipline, but as a true expression of the heart.

Our crafts

Each BALENTES creation originates from an unwavering dedication to material excellence and refined artisanal mastery. Our knitwear is meticulously produced using the most distinguished Florentine yarns, prestigious fibers such as cashmere, silk, and Supergeelong extrafine merino. They carefully selected for their exceptional softness, longevity, and inherent sophistication.

In saddlery, we employ only premium leathers, shaped through traditional techniques upheld by generations of craftsmanship. We choose to create less, yet create with intention: enduring pieces of timeless character, garments that resonate, speak, and are meant to be truly experienced.
