Coach purses were a staple in the early 2000, worn by teens at the mall and celebrities on the red carpet. The monogrammed design with a double C logo was everywhere.

3
The company wiped out about 60% from its market cap between its 2012 peak to mid 2014.
4
But coach is back.
5
The girls came through.
6
Coach is back.
7
Mainly among Gen Z consumers who were driving a lot of its growth.
8
Fashion always looks to the youngest generation for inspiration and then every other generation follows.
9
So we knew if we could win with the timeless Gen Z, we could win with everyone.
10
And in 2024, coach surpassed Michael Kors to capture second place in the US luxury handbag market.
11

12
In this sector, it's really rare to take a kind of mediocre mall brand that has been And tarnished and then elevate it to be a credible luxury contender that is very, very rare.
13
Coach was founded as a men's leather goods business in 1941.
14
It was inspired by a baseball glove over time.

And, you know, the the brand had kind of almost been diluted in terms of its heritage and the value of the products.
25
Between January 2012 and January 2015, Coach shares lost 40% of their value.
26
There was a time when you'd walk in the store and you were just handed a 20% off coupon, and that was a site wide or a store wide discount.
27
And over time, that drags down the brand equity of the brand overall.
28
By 2013, the company recognized the need to course correct. Nearly all of its North American sales are direct to consumer.
29
So Coach had great access to long term data.
30
The company hired a new executive creative director, Stuart Veveers, who came from high-fashion brands Mulberry and Loewe, to introduce a more youthful aesthetic. He shifted coach away from the heavy logo designs. The company also closed underperforming stores and moved away from discounting.
31
They pulled everything back, went completely back to the drawing board and thought, okay, what do we really need to do?
32
And had a very clear plan and message.

It wasn't so much a light switch as it was building on a little bit of success to success to success.

45
Over the last five years, Tapestry's market cap has expanded by about 140%.
46
Bags like the Brooklyn, Rogue and Tabby became best sellers, in part because of powerful social media campaigns with influencers and celebrities like Megan Thee Stallion and Lil NAS X.

Should somebody have to save 3 or 4 months of salary to buy a handbag? Is that really the world we think is great? I love the fact that you don't have to do that for coach, and you don't have to do that across the globe. So that's part of our success.
50

56
Demand for its products overall was up 332% year over year. Coach's sales grew double digits two quarters in a row. While, for example, LVMH, the owner of several luxury brands, witnessed declining sales and the share price of the two companies reflects this difference, too.

You're seeing a very clear market share shift where those brands are declining and they're particularly calling out the affordable luxury consumer.
58
They have said repeatedly that they have not seen any deceleration in the trend year to date in 2025, which is quite surprising given the environment we're in, where the consumer is being more cautious.

60
It currently has nearly 1000 stores in 21 countries.
61

62
More than half of tapestries goods are manufactured in Asia. Planned reciprocal tariffs on those imports are as high as 49%.
63
Yet its supply chain is diversified, with no single supplier accounting for more than 10% of production. It has limited its exposure to China.
64
Based on what we know today.
65
We will be fine.
66
We have relationships for 20 or 30 years with our suppliers. We really are involved in every aspect of the process that helps us navigate these kind of issues.
67
Long term coach could diversify its offerings to compete with peers, women's handbags and other accessories. Account for about 70% of its sales.
68
I think sometimes brands go too quickly into line extensions and category expansion, and what ends up happening is they go into lower margin Emerging categories that are maybe have more fashion risk, more obsolescence risk.
69
And so they end up actually diluting the equity of the brand by doing too many things all at once.
70
So I like that coach is being slow and measured with this.
71
We see so much opportunity and we see that just on the demographics. If you think about next year and for the next five years, there will be 25 million women who turn 18 globally, who can in the markets that we play, who can afford over $100 handbag.
72
When you just think about that opportunity to bring them into the coach, to have that first bag be a coach back, that's tremendous growth.
73
So I don't necessarily need to be great in everything.
74
We like to be great in everything, but we really need to be great in our core categories.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
