The combination of Tafton Cole's forte in quality craftsmanship and Eddie Haan's flair in style formed the perfect recipe that started Cole Haan in 1928 in Chicago. Cole Haan has evolved progressively through different eras - from its classic original footwear that typified the spirit of the 20s to an eclectic range of contemporary trendy leather products. The brand has been constantly developing new styles while remaining true to its hallmark of quality, beauty, comfort, originality, detail and wit! Today, Cole Haan comes in a wide range of men's and women's footwear and accessories such as handbags, belts and various personal leather goods.

From their exclusive design and engineering techniques, to the extraordinary materials used, to the advanced Nike Air technology built into many Cole Haan designs, their high-tech innovation has just one simple goal: to make life a little better. The company's signature soft leathers and Nike air-tech cushioning reflect Cole Haan's emphasis on ‘walkability'. Compared to many others that compromise comfort and classic with boring designs, Cole Haan uses vivid colors and dynamic patterns that infuse Life!
