In our archives we hold a remarkable collection of letters exchanged between Linton and Chanel during the 1920s and 1930s. These historic correspondences capture the early days of our partnership and offer a fascinating glimpse into one of our most enduring collaborations.

In the 1940s, we proudly showcased our fabrics for the first time in America, marking the beginning of a lasting presence in this important market. Over the decades, we have been fortunate to build strong relationships with loyal customers across the United States, and America remains a market where our business continues to thrive to this day.

The Walker family have proudly led Lintons since the 1960s, when Leslie Walker took over the company and, alongside his wife Carole, worked tirelessly to secure its future. In the 1990s, their son Keith Walker took the reins, guiding Lintons through decades of growth and success. In 2022, the third generation of the family continued the legacy, with brothers Duncan and Ross Walker becoming joint Managing Directors.

In 1991, Linton Tweeds received the Queen’s Award for Export, one of the most prestigious business honours in the United Kingdom. The award recognises outstanding achievement in international trade, celebrating companies that demonstrate exceptional growth and success in exporting their products worldwide.

In 2014, we were honoured with the opportunity to showcase our fabrics at a prestigious event held at Dumfries House, organised and attended by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, now King Charles III. The occasion was a remarkable recognition of our craftsmanship, and the accompanying image captures the proud moment when our now Managing Director personally met His Royal Highness

In 2015, we were honoured to welcome Her Royal Highness Princess Alexandra, cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II, to our mill and design studio. During her visit, Princess Alexandra toured our workshop, met our talented team of designers and makers, and learned about the heritage techniques that inspire our work today. Her warm interest and gracious presence made the occasion unforgettable, and it remains a proud milestone in our studio’s history
