Cole Haan Expands NYC Presence with New Store in Flatiron District

Cole Haan Unveils Its Latest NYC Store in the Historic Flatiron District

On January 30, 2025, Cole Haan, the renowned American lifestyle and accessories brand, celebrated the grand opening of its latest store in New York City, situated in the vibrant Flatiron District—a location steeped in both historical significance and contemporary culture. This new store marks the brand's third retail presence in NYC as part of its ambitious global expansion strategy, joining over 500 locations across nearly 100 countries.

The latest Cole Haan outlet can be found at the bustling intersection of 5th Avenue and 19th Street, occupying a charming 1,622-square-foot space within a neo-Renaissance building dating back to 1904. This landmark structure not only amplifies the unique shopping atmosphere but also serves as a canvas displaying Cole Haan's legacy of combining modern innovation with timeless elegance in its footwear and accessories. Customers can explore an expansive collection ranging from lifestyle to athletic and formal wear within a thoughtfully designed open-concept environment that enhances their shopping experience.

Jack Boys, CEO of Cole Haan, expressed his enthusiasm about the new store, stating, "New York has long been a key and successful market for Cole Haan. We're excited to open a new store in this vibrant city in the iconic Flatiron District. This next step in our brand and retail journey offers a unique opportunity to engage with both long-time and new customers."

As customers enter, they are greeted by stunning floor-to-ceiling windows allowing natural light to flood the retail space, complemented by elegant design elements such as herringbone wood flooring and aged iron chandeliers. The shop’s layout features 360 custom-built shelves that encourage customers to navigate through Cole Haan's wide array of products seamlessly. Artwork displayed throughout the store encompasses macro images of the Flatiron building itself—integrating the neighborhood’s aesthetic into the retail experience and further solidifying the brand’s connection to its environment.

The opening of the Flatiron store introduces an exciting preview of Cole Haan's Spring 2025 campaign along with new collections. For men, standout pieces include the innovative ØriginalGrand™ Energyweave Oxfords, designed with the latest FlowerFlex™ sole technology aimed at providing excellent traction and flexibility. This model leverages Cole Haan's advanced energy rebound cushioning compound, which promises superior shock absorption. Customers will also find other popular styles like the ØriginalGrand™ 2.0 and ZERØGRAND™ Remastered, along with classic oxfords and loafers.

On the women's side, the collection features practical yet stylish offerings, such as the Georgie Ballet and Graclyn MaryJane Ballet Flats, both engineered to provide comfort and freedom of movement, with molded outsoles that enhance flexibility and traction—ideal for bustling city life.
