Coach has launched the Soho Sneaker, a new style of footwear inspired by the house’s New York City roots. First debuted on the Coach Spring 2025 runway, the sneaker is a celebration of Coach’s rich heritage of craftsmanship and the expressive spirit of today’s generation – and reflects the house’s continued commitment to offering elevated and dynamic footwear in addition to leathergoods, ready-to-wear and accessories.
Timeless and versatile, the Soho Sneaker takes inspiration from the cross-training sneakers of the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, reimagining a classic silhouette through the house’s distinctive design language. Named after New York City’s iconic Soho neighborhood—an epicenter of fashion and culture – the sneaker embodies the creative energy of the city, where diverse identities and personal aesthetics converge.
A tribute to the brand’s rich legacy of craftsmanship, the design incorporates classic heritage details, including a signature Coach storypatch, smooth yet durable leather engineered for optimal breathability, and intricate stitchwork with recycled piping. These elements blend tradition with modernity, ensuring both style and function in every step.
Emphasizing sustainability, the sneaker features 100% recycled polyester lining, recycled laces, a recycled nylon tongue, and a recycled rubber insert. The Coach Signature sculpted logo is also crafted from recycled rubber, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to reducing environmental impact through thoughtful innovation and expert craftsmanship.
Paying playful homage to Coach’s hometown of New York City, the Soho Sneaker features a map of Manhattan integrated into the tread of the outsole, with the Coach logo marking the house’s Hudson Yards headquarters. As seen on the runway, a series of fun and vibrant resin charms – depicting iconic New York City and ‘90s-inspired imagery like taxi cabs, dice, and other whimsical designs – will be available to shop, allowing wearers to personalize their sneakers and make them uniquely their own.
Offered in core colors such as black, optic white, blue, cream, and patchwork, the sneaker also comes in a selection of fresh and playful seasonal shades, including blue bell, pink, violet, and green. The Soho Sneaker represents the latest expression of Coach’s Courage to Be Real storytelling, bringing the house’s vision to life by transforming everyday essentials into lasting platforms for authentic self-expression.
“The Soho Sneaker feels deeply rooted in the spirit of New York City – dynamic and on-the-go. I was inspired by the way today’s generation are exploring and redefining the traditional codes of luxury, and their fluid approach to personal style,” said Coach Creative Director Stuart Vevers.
The Soho Sneaker is available in Men’s and Women’s sizing on coach.com
