Coach

Earlier this month, 500+ employees from across North America came together for our annual Store Managers Conference in Las Vegas. It was a transformative three day experience filled with employee development, goals for 2025 and celebrating some major milestones! ?? We also brought the FUN with an inaugural North America Lip Sync battle, Lil Miss Joe (our coffee shop mascot) surprises and an unforgettable awards night. Staying purpose driven, the team gave back to the local community through the Coach Foundation, making 8,000 sunshine kits for homeless youth. A heartfelt thank you to all the attendees who brought their energy and passion to the event. Your dedication is what drives our success. #CoachNA #SMC2024 #CoachCares #CoachFoundation #CoachNY #GrowthMindset

We are excited to announce the launch of Coachtopia's "Alter/Ego" collection, featuring a range of bags crafted with leftover leather scraps from iconic Coach styles. This collection combines Coach's quality and craftsmanship with a significantly lower carbon footprint and exceptional value. By designing with these production processes in mind, we are deepening our commitment to minimizing waste. ? The Alter/Ego collection is being brought to life in a new campaign film, “The Wasted Parts,” starring actor and Coachtopia community member Lola Tung. In the film Lola plays two alter ego versions of herself, one a climate-conscious Coachtopian, the other a fashion-forward Coach girl, who are brought together in a high-flying sequence by the magnetic connection between their respective Coach and Coachtopia bags. ? “My generation is starting to really consider the impacts of their fashion choices, so I’m thrilled to help Coachtopia tell this story about production waste—and how we can transform how we think about it,” shared Lola. “I can relate to sometimes feeling torn between style and sustainability when it comes to fashion, so it was really interesting to play that out as these two different characters, and visually represent this duality in a beautiful and creative way.” ? ?? Congratulations to the entire Coachtopia team for bringing this campaign and collection to life. Join us in celebrating the new collection and our commitment to a more circular future in fashion.

Yesterday, the Coach Spring 2025 collection made its debut at New York Fashion Week. With an emphasis on sustainability, many pieces from the collection were crafted from post-consumer garments, artfully repurposed to create something new.?Our Creative Director, Stuart Vevers, described the collection as “real clothes in a real, relevant, urban environment. And we’re keeping in mind the values of a new generation that is discovering these pieces for the first time.” We are immensely proud of this collection, which underscores the beauty of self-expression over perfectionism. It embodies the spirit of our “Courage To Be Real” campaign, celebrating uniqueness and the courage to be authentically oneself. #CoachNY #CoachSpring25 #NYFW #CourageToBeReal

For the second year in a row, we’re honored to team up with nonprofit partner?Soles4Souls?to show our gratitude for teachers across the country.????? Inspired by the Coach Foundation’s Dream It Real mission, which aims to create opportunities and remove barriers for the next generation of young people who have the courage to dream it real, who better to recognize than the teachers who have the courage to help students make their dreams possible? So we jumped at the chance last month to surprise 1,500 educators at low-income schools with Coach pop-up shops during Teacher’s Appreciation Week. Over 160 Coach store team members volunteered at local events in Miami (FL), Chicago (IL), New York (NY), and San Jose (CA) to help teachers ‘shop’ a variety of Coach handbags and accessories to take home – at no cost to them. Thank you to all our Coach volunteers for helping to spread joy to these very deserving educators, and thank you to all the teachers out there for your unrelenting commitment to the next generation! #DreamItReal #CoachNY Check out scenes from the recent New York (Bronx) Teacher Appreciation event in this short video:

Did you know that at the Coach corporate headquarters in NYC, we have an archive housing a model of nearly every handbag we’ve created since our founding in 1941? The repository is not only a visual evolution of handbag development over the years, but a source of inspiration for our design team, who look through shelves of historical silhouettes to create contemporary designs. Ryan Bollwerk, archivist for Coach, shared with Fortune?that, “[…] we are the only ones who have this at scale in North America.” Learn more – and get inspired – via the full article at fortune.com:?https://lnkd.in/eCKyi6ai
