Ermatinger, a seasoned executive who has been serving as True Religion’s Interim SVP of global sourcing and production, is expected to build on the strategic initiatives that have been implemented since the acquisition of TowerBrook, a private equity firm, in July 2013, and will guide the company into its next phase of development, according to a company press release.

John Anderson, chairman of the True Religion Board of Directors said, “John is a seasoned industry veteran who will lead True Religion towards more accelerated growth.

True Religion has re-designed its product line and brand platform, launched compelling collaborations with style leaders, and enhanced the customer experience with a remodel of its retail stores, implementation of omni-channel functionality and a new e-commerce platform. I am eager to build on the Company’s strong foundation, position the iconic brand for the future and further advance True Religion’s transformation.”
