Cole Haan is a global lifestyle brand serving always-connected, active professionals with innovative footwear and lifestyle accessories. Recognizing a major cultural shift in consumer adoption of a more casual workplace, management and Apax Partners acquired Cole Haan from Nike, Inc. in February 2013 with a vision to disrupt the conventional dress footwear industry. Since then, we have pioneered new categories of footwear and lifestyle accessories that customers wear from work-to-workout-to-weekend, building upon our 90-year heritage and reputation for quality craftsmanship with innovation. Our brand resonates equally with women and men across multiple generations, with the focus of product creation and marketing towards our core 24- to 44-year-old customers.
