COLE HAAN SIGNS EXCLUSIVE AGREEMENT WITH CATAPULT GROUP TO LAUNCH PERFORMANCE APPAREL

Cole Haan Golf Apparel to Debut Spring 2026, with Racket and Performance Lifestyle to Follow

NEW YORK, May 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Cole Haan, the iconic American footwear, accessories and lifestyle brand renowned for merging innovation with timeless design, proudly announces an exclusive agreement with Catapult Group to introduce a new performance apparel division. Launching globally in Spring 2026, this partnership will bring to market Cole Haan Golf apparel, with racket sports and performance lifestyle collections to follow. 

This milestone marks a bold new chapter in the evolution of Cole Haan's product offering, building on the brand's nearly 100-year legacy and deep-rooted heritage in the sport of golf—beginning with co-founder Eddie Haan's patented golf shoe features in 1940. 

"Since re-entering the golf footwear category in 2021, we have been focused on a journey to bring well-designed, high-quality performance footwear and apparel to professionals and enthusiasts who live a 24/7 lifestyle—from the back nine to the corner office and everywhere in between," said Jack Boys, CEO at Cole Haan. "With Scott Davis and the Catapult team as our partners, we have the proven expertise needed to deliver on products at the intersection of style and performance—bringing a uniquely Cole Haan perspective to one of the world's fastest-growing sports."

Scott Davis of Catapult Group will lead this exciting opportunity and serve as President of Cole Haan Golf at Catapult overseeing global strategy and go-to-market operations. Davis is a proven and dynamic leader with over 25 years of experience in global fashion, golf brands, and top-tier retailers, known for driving growth and brand evolution.

"It's a true honor to operate as President, Cole Haan Golf at Catapult and help steward a brand celebrated for nearly a century of craftsmanship, innovation, and timeless American style," said Scott Davis. "As a longtime PGA professional, I am deeply proud to bring my experience in the game to this exciting new chapter—introducing a golf apparel collection that merges performance with sophistication and extending the brand's legacy into the world of golf. This initiative underscores our commitment to meeting the evolving needs of today's athletes while staying true to the values that have defined Cole Haan for generations."

The exclusive agreement pairs Cole Haan's design legacy with Catapult's best-in-class growth platform spanning product development, production, merchandising, marketing, and sales, across the golf and sports marketplaces. The line will introduce sophisticated lifestyle apparel that delivers beyond golf—any place, any time—seamlessly transitioning from work to sport to leisure. Together, the companies will expand Cole Haan's performance footprint and engage new consumers through premium, versatile product and targeted distribution.

Having successfully launched footwear within the golf, running, and tennis categories, this entry into performance apparel reinforces Cole Haan's commitment to democratizing performance innovation—offering technically advanced, style-forward products for a generation always on the move.

Cole Haan Golf Apparel will be available starting Spring 2026.
