Born more than a century ago at the intersection of form and function, Cole Haan has been innovating ever since founder Trafton Cole started making resoleable shoes during the depression. After being bought by Nike in 1988, Cole Haan began introducing footwear with built-in air chambers, utilizing Nike's cutting edge technology to make everything from women's heels to wingtips more comfortable than they'd ever been. Today, the NYC-based brand takes its inspiration from the streets of New York City, offering a range of classic staples with their signature twist—from outerwear and handbags to heels and weekenders—that can stand up to the rigors of the city and still look good.

Purchased these based on reviews, the look and Cole Haan experience. Got the black. Be advised, they are not a tumbled or semi-type gloss, they are quite shiny. Felt a bit snug when I tried them on, but basically ran true to size. Wore to the office the first day, and found them to be quite comfortable. You can feel the Air Nike technology at work. Puts a bit of spring in your step. I would definitely wear these with dress trousers and a sports coat, perhaps even a suit. A nice shoe. As always, Zappos service is great.

I bought these shoes for my husband. They looked very nice and he loved how comfortable they were, but within a month or so, the leather started peeling off the toe section. Very disappointing in a shoe at this price point.

I loved the style. It was difficult to find a size that fit properly. I eventually, gave up once I found the right length, the shoes were uncomfortable. There were pinch points on toes and top of arch. I was pretty disappointed.

Great shoe, ridiculously comfortable. Great for wearing all and and night. And when your day finally does come to a close they slip off nice and easy. Be sure to always put in quality shoe trees as soon as you take them off.
I'd also recommend: Doc Martens

Love these shoes. Bought them because I was looking for something that would look good with a nice pair of jeans as well as a nicer pair of pants and a sport coat. I hate wearing socks and these were comfortable right out of the box. And as usual, Zappos service is the best. I'm a dead-on size 11 and these were true to size in every way.

Comfortable shoe! I work in New York, and just like most people who work in this area, I use public transportation a lot. I walk around 15-20 minutes from the subway station to my office, and because of this, I need to wear comfortable shoes. I gave this shoe 5 stars based on comfort because of the soft leather and the rubber sole. The sole also has Nike Air technology, which you won’t notice by looking at the shoe, but when you wear it, you do feel the difference. The shoe also looks great if you wear business casual and may be a good option during the weekends in jeans.
