The Walt Disney World shopping district continues to evolve quickly as other retail locations shift out and new businesses rotate in.
Cole Haan Heading to Disney Springs
Cole Haan appears to be joining the retail lineup at Disney Springs, according to an official Instagram post teasing that the brand is “heading to Disney Springs.”
The short video features an unseen traveler packing a suitcase with a few clothing items before sealing their rollaboard and placing a pair of tan Cole Haan sneakers on top. A caption on the video reads “Save Room for More” before cutting to a small card on a luggage tag reading “Coming Soon Cole Haan at Disney Springs Town Center”.
Cole Haan is an American footwear and accessories brand founded in 1928. The company is known for men’s and women’s shoes, including dress shoes, loafers, sneakers, sandals, and boots, as well as bags, outerwear, and other accessories.
The brand details its products as combining classic American style with comfort-focused design and modern materials, a blending of aesthetic and functionality they describe as “future familiar”.
An exact opening date and storefront details for the Disney Springs location have not yet been announced. It is also unclear whether the shop will be a full-scale Cole Haan retail location or a more limited-range small shop.

The announced addition comes amid several recent changes to the Disney Springs retail roster. Shore, one of the original tenants in the Town Center section of Disney Springs, permanently closed as of May 1 after holding a clearance sale. Johnston & Murphy, another footwear and apparel retailer at Disney Springs, later closed on May 7.
While nothing has been confirmed as of this post, we recently noticed a new permit that listed Vuori as the possible tenant for the former Shore space. Earlier this year, Francesca’s also closed its Disney Springs location as part of the chain’s broader shutdown.
