Our favorite footwear and leather goods company just got a whole lot better.... Cole Haan is paying homage to it's roots and everyones classic sensibility by introducing their first vintage and denim-inspired men and women's footwear and accessories collection: Cole, Rood & Haan Co. I attended a fabulous party last week hosted by Paper Magazine launching the new line and got to see the amazing designs up close and personal. Think....The 1920's, speakeasies, the jazz revolution and superior craftsmanship.
80 year later, now simple deemed--Cole Haan--the company as maintained itself as one of the premier American luxury goods brands. Just take a look a few of the new Cole, Rood & Haan Co. womens designs below...don't they just make your heart want to sing an Ella Fritzgerald song!!?? The collection will be sold in exclusive domestic and international locations in addition to small, premium independent locations in New York, Los Angeles, Oregon, Italy, Hong Kong, Dubai and Saudi Arabia. The shoes retail from $225 (for the boot shoes pictured above) to $525 (for the boots). Check out the amazing website for the collection HERE!!! Soooooo, what do you think??????
Posted by: Mariam| Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at 11:54 AM Hi Mariam---I totally understand that the shoes are a little pricey, but I think they are beautifully classic. The menswear look is very big in women's fashion right now, and I think the collection did a great job of bringing back the designs that made them successful in the first place. This look is not for everyone-- the main Cole Haan line will keep cranking out the more modern styles...but if you want a sleek retro look these shoes are definitely a great option. And for anyone that likes the style of these shoes but they aren't in your budget---Steve Madden makes a great pair that retails for under $100....http://www.stevemadden.com/item.aspx?id=48956&path=|womens%20shoes|womens%20best%20sellers I adore Cole Haan Loafers.. So it looks like i will give a pair of these hard bottoms a try!! Thanks for the update Wilson! |

Serioulty I'm a huge fan of Cole Hann shoes, I have on a pair of driving shoes right now. BUT really these shoes are ugly who's brain child was that and to sell them for so much money. Yeah we all know Cole Hann shoes are known to be pricey but these shoes already look old and thet look like the shoes you see at the consignment stores. I'm very sorry but Cole Hann has got to span out of this, you have to have some type of balance between style & price and I don't see it..
Still Ya Cole Hann.
