Cole Haan is putting Christian Slater and Jenny Slate in its shoes for fall. The footwear and accessories brand has tapped the two actors to star in “Comfortable Anywhere,” its fall 2026 global campaign, which rolls out Wednesday morning.
The campaign centers on the idea that getting dressed shouldn’t require choosing between looking polished and actually feeling comfortable. Shot in a day-in-the-life format, the campaign features Slater as an unfazed host preparing for dinner guests (and attempting homemade pasta for the first time) while Slate is shown confronting a looming deadline and looking for inspiration just about everywhere except her desk. Along the way, I’ve learned to go with the flow and trust where I am.” “That’s what connected me to Cole Haan and the idea of Comfortable Anywhere” he adds.
Originally developed for dress shoes, the construction combines lightweight cushioning with the more refined look of a traditional stacked-leather heel. Slater also models the ØriginalGrand SkyWeave Everarc, Cole Haan’s first performance runner, which incorporates SkyWeave technology and FeatherFeel cushioning. Slate wears the GrandPrø Runner 2.0, an ultra-lightweight style designed for all-day wear.
The broader fall lineup spans sneakers, loafers, boots, handbags and accessories. The campaign arrives as Cole Haan edges closer to its 100th anniversary in 2028. Founded in 1928, the American label has become known for pairing innovative comfort technology alongside its traditional shoemaking heritage.
Cole Haan’s fall collection is available to shop online starting today.
