About Cole Haan
Dress shoes that secretly feel like sneakers are Cole Haan's whole modern pitch, thanks to the Grand.OS cushioning technology built into a lot of their loafers and oxfords. The brand walks a line between office-appropriate and genuinely comfortable, which is a niche a lot of traditional dress shoe brands haven't cracked. Timing your return matters more here than most places: authorize it within 14 days of shipment and return shipping is free, wait past that (even within the 30-day window) and a $7.95 fee kicks in.
What they sell
- Grand.OS cushioned dress shoes and loafers
- Men's and women's oxfords
