Coach Sneakers
Coach Sneakers by popular demand.... the ladies who frequent our site particulalrly requested we pay some particular attention to the Coach brand.In the real world I am a strategic business consultant, and see a natural future business migration from these sneakers to the putting green and from there to the ladies softball diamond.... You heard it here first! As with many high end products it is diffidult to find many Coach bargains online, but when we see a pair listed on e-bay, or other places we put them on this page. Established in 1941 as primarily a handbag company, Coach called itself a collection of artisans who "handcrafted leather goods using skills handed down from generation to genration". Their niche was to craft bags out of stronger but softer leather and liked to use the baseball glove's texture as a muster. A return to the softball pitch would be in many ways "full cycle" for the company, in my opinion. The company didn't begin manufacturing Coach Sneakers until the mid 1990's under the direction of company president, Reed Krakoff. The shoe niche serviced with these sneakers can be described as the "formally comfortable" market...for times when you have to dress up, but you really don't feel like it.to switch to in the locker room after a match. They are also great upscale casualwear to switch to in the locker room after a match. And we do mean 'upscale'... the cheapest we have found on the company site is $88 bucks! For a sneaker! James Dean would certainly have his cause to rebel!
These Coach Barretts (Left) are where the $88 bidding starts. The feature the "C" patterned fabric, boardered in leather and cotton twill linings. The
outsoles
are from classic "sneaky" rubber.
At the highest end we have the Coach Kito Sneakers (Right). We just love these shoes, and at $130 bucks, we should !But seriously, just plain suede and rubber comfort here.... We would love to see these guys use these shoes as a pattern for a Ladies Golf Shoe.... with a matching Club Bag! Sweet! Anyways... 
Coming down in the "mid-priced range" of between $108 and $118 are these Bonneys. The fold down high tops are super unique, though we hesitate to say they really look "good".This model has no leather but features the "C" pattern uppers with the 'novelty' lining for the flip back effect and the classic rubber sole.
We are looking forward to seeing Coach tie up with a couple good athletes and maybe a golf or other sport manufacturer or two, and coming out with some stylish, high performance cleats, soon!
