In 1928, Trafton Cole and Eddie Haan designed the first Cole Haan shoe. It was Chicago, the jazz age. Quality was everything and style, like the sound, was smooth and sophisticated. Originally, Cole Haan was a mens footwear label that captured the essence of the 20s spirit with beautifully designed and well made shoes for the dapper gentleman. Today, Cole Haan brings that heritage to a full line of products including Cole Haan shoes, Cole Haan bags, Cole Haan belts and Cole Haan eyewear.

Cole Haan is Americas premier style and luxury brand. Each season they introduce an exciting new collection of high-quality mens and womens footwear, iconic handbags, mens and womens sunglasses and personal leather goods. Cole Haan is inspired by a passion for innovation and beauty, from authentic handcrafting, to the fast-forward excitement of NIKE AIR?Technology.

Cole Haan shoes, Cole Haan belts and Cole Haan handbags are crafted using the most luxurious materials available, such as rich, hand-burnished calfskin, plush suede, genuine crocodile and American farm-raised alligator. The brand approaches design like sculpture or architecture from a 360-degree perspective. Its designers think of every angle and give each its own design element. This level of detail sets Cole Haan apart. In addition, because Cole Haan products are hand-crafted, no two pieces are exactly alike. A dynamic luxury brand, Cole Haan defines the ultimate in artisan quality and detail, chic, on-trend fashion and downtown style that is unique and eclectic and beautiful products that people love to own.
