Cole Haan
Cole Haan was born in 1928 and has been synonymous with quality, craftsmanship and style ever since. Reborn in 2013 with independent ownership for the first time in twenty-five years, the brand is on a journey from a US footwear company into a multi-billion dollar global brand inspired by Extraordinary people from Manhattan to Maine. Cole Haan’s belief that each of us is Extraordinary drives the brand to find, celebrate, and inspire that spark in everyone. Cole Haan is a proponent of elegant innovation and strives to infuse everything it makes—from footwear and outerwear, to bags, apparel, accessories and beyond—with craft, style and engineering.
